Analysis of Kidney Donation and Its Relationship With Graft Failure of the Recipient at 1 Year.

Transplantation proceedings
INTRODUCTION: Currently, the shortage of organs available for kidney transplantation and a change in donors' and recipients' profiles (elderly, with cardiovascular risk, donors after cardiac death), it is becoming necessary to assess grafts from expa...

Usefulness of Delayed Introduction of Tacrolimus in Kidney Transplants Using Type-III Donors After Circulatory Death.

Transplantation proceedings
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...

The future is coming: promising perspectives regarding the use of machine learning in renal transplantation.

Jornal brasileiro de nefrologia
INTRODUCTION: The prediction of post transplantation outcomes is clinically important and involves several problems. The current prediction models based on standard statistics are very complex, difficult to validate and do not provide accurate predic...

Experience With Hypothermic Machine Perfusion in Expanded Criteria Donors: Functional Outcomes.

Transplantation proceedings
UNLABELLED: Hypothermic machine perfusion (HMP) decreases delayed graft function (DGF) and improves 1-year graft survival in expanded criteria donors (ECDs). Time of HMP could be associated with incidence of DGF.

Machine Learning Approach to Predicting Stem Cell Donor Availability.

Biology of blood and marrow transplantation : journal of the American Society for Blood and Marrow Transplantation
The success of unrelated donor stem cell transplants depends on not only finding genetically matched donors, but also donor availability. On average 50% of potential donors in the National Marrow Donor Program database are unavailable for a variety o...

Predictive factors of spontaneous CMV DNAemia clearance in kidney transplantation.

Journal of clinical virology : the official publication of the Pan American Society for Clinical Virology
UNLABELLED: Cytomegalovirus (CMV) infection occurs frequently after solid organ transplantation. Therapeutic strategies, in particular when to start a curative treatment, has not yet been defined. The purpose of this study was to assess predictive fa...

Discover important donor-recipient risk factors and interactions in heart transplant primary graft dysfunction with machine learning.

Journal of the American Medical Informatics Association : JAMIA
OBJECTIVES: Primary graft dysfunction (PGD) is an essential outcome after the heart transplant, which causes severe complications and symptoms for recipients. The in advance prediction of PGD can help the transplant physician better manage the risks ...

Leveraging Artificial Intelligence to Assess Perceived Age and Donor Facial Resemblance After Face Transplantation.

Annals of plastic surgery
PURPOSE: A major concern for patients undergoing facial transplantation relates to postoperative appearance. This study leverages artificial intelligence (AI) visual analysis software to provide an objective assessment of perceived age and degree of ...

Artificial Intelligence-Assisted Matching of Human Postmortem Donors to Ocular Research Projects.

Advances in experimental medicine and biology
The scarcity of human ocular samples with short postmortem intervals (PMIs) is a significant issue in ophthalmic research and drug discovery. A contributing factor is that eye banks must manually match donor data to prospective research project crite...

Predicting Donor Selection and Multi-Organ Transplantation within Organ Procurement Organizations Using Machine Learning.

Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. Annual International Conference
Organ procurement organizations (OPOs) play a crucial role in the field of organ transplantation, serving as key intermediaries in the process of organ donation. However, despite their vital function, there exists a pressing issue of transparency wit...
