Latest AI and machine learning research in kidney transplantation for healthcare professionals.
INTRODUCTION: Our study compares 2 immunosuppressive strategies to reduce tacrolimus nephrotoxicity and its risk of acute tubular necrosis: delayed introduction of tacrolimus plus thymoglobulin vs initial tacrolimus plus basiliximab on the results of kidney transplant (KT) using type-III donation after circulatory death (III-DCD).
BACKGROUND: Modern clinical environments are laden with technology devices continuously gathering physiological data from patients. This is especially true in critical care environments, where life-saving decisions may have to be made on the basis of signals from monitoring devices. Hemodynamic monitoring is essential in dialysis, surgery, and in critically ill patients. For the most severe patien...
INTRODUCTION: The prediction of post transplantation outcomes is clinically important and involves several problems. The current prediction models bas...
The pre-transplant weight loss required of end-stage renal disease patients is often unachievable. Though robot-assisted procedures among extremely ob...
BACKGROUND: Renal transplantation is the treatment of choice for chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients, but the shortage of kidneys and the disabling ...
BACKGROUND: Although presepsin (P-SEP) is an early sepsis biomarker, sepsis is often suspected after starting hemodialysis (HD). To enhance the utilit...
Molecular diagnosis is being increasingly used in transplant pathology to render more objective and quantitative determinations that also provide mech...
BACKGROUND: Medicine is becoming an increasingly data-centred discipline and, beyond classical statistical approaches, artificial intelligence (AI) an...
BACKGROUND: There is little information about quality of life (QoL) for patients with end-stage kidney disease (ESKD) choosing conservative kidney man...
Hepatitis C Virus (HCV) is uniformly recurrent after liver transplant (LT) and recurrence is associated with an increased risk of mortality. Immunosu...
Close monitoring of estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) is important for early recognition of worsening renal function to prevent further dete...
BACKGROUND: The diffusion gradient between ionized calcium (iCa) in the inlet dialysate and blood is considered to be the main driving force of calciu...
Cancers treated by transplantation are often curative, but immunosuppressive drugs are required to prevent and (if needed) to treat graft-versus-host ...
Inulinase are industrial food enzymes which have gained much attention in recent scenario. In this study, Inulinase producing eight bacterial colonies...
Oval squids are polyandrous, with one female mating with multiple males during the spawning season. There are two alternative male mating tactics used...
Human footsteps can provide a unique behavioural pattern for robust biometric systems. We propose spatio-temporal footstep representations from floor-...
Thrombotic microangiopathy is a form of antibody-mediated rejection (ABMR): it is the main complication of ABO-incompatible (ABOi) kidney transplantat...
BACKGROUND The aim of this study was to investigate serum concentrations of visfatin, irisin, and omentin in patients with end-stage lung diseases (ES...
Atherosclerosis is a chronic inflammatory disease characterized by a complex interplay between innate and adaptive immunity. Dendritic cells (DCs) pla...
