Abstract

This article examines OPTN/SRTR data on kidney and pancreas transplantation for 2004 and the previous decade, and discusses recent changes in kidney-pancreas (KP) allocation policy and emerging issues in kidney donation after cardiac death (DCD). Although the number of kidney donors continues to increase, new waiting list registrations again outpaced the number of kidney transplants performed, rising by 11% between 2003 and 2004 and contributing to a 1-year increase of 8% in the number of patients active on the waiting list. DCD has increased steadily since 2000; 39% more DCD transplants were performed in 2004 than 2003. Both deceased donor and living donor kidney graft survival rates remain excellent and are improving. The number of people living with a functioning kidney transplant doubled between 1995 and 2004, to 101,440 with a functioning kidney-alone and 7213 with a functioning KP. Health care providers in all settings are more likely to be exposed to these transplant recipients. Patient survival following simultaneous pancreas-kidney (SPK) transplantation is excellent and has improved incrementally since 1995; death rates in the first year fell from 60 per 1000 patient-years at risk in 2001 to 45 in 2003. The number of s...Continue Reading

COVID-19

Coronaviruses encompass a large family of viruses that cause the common cold as well as more serious diseases, such as the ongoing outbreak of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19; formally known as 2019-nCoV). Coronaviruses can spread from animals to humans; symptoms include fever, cough, shortness of breath, and breathing difficulties; in more severe cases, infection can lead to death. This feed covers recent research on COVID-19.

Blastomycosis

Blastomycosis fungal infections spread through inhaling Blastomyces dermatitidis spores. Discover the latest research on blastomycosis fungal infections here.

Nuclear Pore Complex in ALS/FTD

Alterations in nucleocytoplasmic transport, controlled by the nuclear pore complex, may be involved in the pathomechanism underlying multiple neurodegenerative diseases including Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis and Frontotemporal Dementia. Here is the latest research on the nuclear pore complex in ALS and FTD.

Applications of Molecular Barcoding

The concept of molecular barcoding is that each original DNA or RNA molecule is attached to a unique sequence barcode. Sequence reads having different barcodes represent different original molecules, while sequence reads having the same barcode are results of PCR duplication from one original molecule. Discover the latest research on molecular barcoding here.

Chronic Fatigue Syndrome

Chronic fatigue syndrome is a disease characterized by unexplained disabling fatigue; the pathology of which is incompletely understood. Discover the latest research on chronic fatigue syndrome here.

Evolution of Pluripotency

Pluripotency refers to the ability of a cell to develop into three primary germ cell layers of the embryo. This feed focuses on the mechanisms that underlie the evolution of pluripotency. Here is the latest research.

Position Effect Variegation

Position Effect Variagation occurs when a gene is inactivated due to its positioning near heterochromatic regions within a chromosome. Discover the latest research on Position Effect Variagation here.

STING Receptor Agonists

Stimulator of IFN genes (STING) are a group of transmembrane proteins that are involved in the induction of type I interferon that is important in the innate immune response. The stimulation of STING has been an active area of research in the treatment of cancer and infectious diseases. Here is the latest research on STING receptor agonists.

Microbicide

Microbicides are products that can be applied to vaginal or rectal mucosal surfaces with the goal of preventing, or at least significantly reducing, the transmission of sexually transmitted infections. Here is the latest research on microbicides.
