Donor-specific antibodies (DSAs) against human leukocyte antigen (HLA) play a crucial role in antibody-mediated rejection, a major barrier to successful organ transplantation. Donor-recipient HLA molecular incompatibility critically influences DSA su...
The purpose of this study was to enhance the prediction of solid-organ recipient and donor crossmatch compatibility by applying machine learning (ML). Prediction of crossmatch compatibility is complex and requires an understanding of the recipient an...

Primary graft dysfunction (PGD) is a common complication after lung transplantation associated with poor outcomes. Although risk factors have been identified, the complex interactions between clinical variables affecting PGD risk are not well underst...
INTRODUCTION: Delayed graft function (DGF) shortens the survival time of transplanted kidneys and increases the risk of rejection. Current methods are inadequate in predicting DGF. More precise tools are required to assess kidney suitability for tran...
BACKGROUND: Several scores have been developed to stratify the risk of graft loss in controlled donation after circulatory death (cDCD). However, their performance is unsatisfactory in the Spanish population, where most cDCD livers are recovered usin...
BACKGROUND: In Italy, the demand for allogeneic transplantation exceeds the number of compatible donors in the Italian Bone Marrow Donor Registry (IBMDR). This study aimed to explore the knowledge, beliefs, opinions, values, and feelings of the Itali...
The UK Deceased Donor Kidney Transplant Outcome Prediction (UK-DTOP) Tool, developed using advanced artificial intelligence (AI), significantly enhances the prediction of outcomes for deceased-donor kidney transplants in the UK. This study analyzed d...
BACKGROUND: Kidney transplantation is the optimal renal replacement therapy for children with end-stage renal disease; however, delayed graft function (DGF), a common post-operative complication, may negatively impact the long-term outcomes of both t...

Lung size measurements play an important role in transplantation, as optimal donor-recipient size matching is necessary to ensure the best possible outcome. Although several strategies for size matching are currently used, all have limitations, and n...
The decision to accept a deceased donor organ offer for transplant, or wait for something potentially better in the future, can be challenging. Clinical decision support tools predicting transplant outcomes are lacking. This project uses interpretabl...
