Impact of donor-recipient gender on kidney graft and patient survival: short- and long-term outcomes.

Abstract:

PURPOSE:Donor and recipient gender influence on post-transplant kidney and patient survival is still controversial, and the literature data do not present unanimous conclusions. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of gender disparities between donor and recipient in 963 kidney transplants performed at our center from January 2000 to December 2010. METHODS:The patients were subdivided into four groups according to recipient and donor gender: male donor-to-male recipient (MDMR; n = 305), male donor-to-female recipient (MDFR; n = 203), female donor-to-female recipient (FDFR; n = 206), and female donor-to-male recipient (FDMR; n = 249). Independent sample's t test and one-way ANOVA were used for statistical analyses. Graft and patient survival were calculated by the Kaplan-Meier method and compared using the log rank test. RESULTS:There were no statistically significant differences between the groups with regard to age, cold ischemia time, delayed graft function, primary non-function, and episodes of acute and chronic rejection. Moreover, no difference in either graft (p = 0.92) or patient (p = 0.41) survival at 1, 3, and 5 years was observed. However, female recipients had significantly lower serum creatinine values and higher estimated GFR, particularly if they received a male donor kidney, and these findings were stable up to 3-year post-transplantation. CONCLUSIONS:No impact of gender on short- or long-term graft and patient survival was observed in deceased kidney transplantation. However, we report a lower creatinine level in the male donors to female recipients group as compared with other recipient-donor gender combinations, although this difference loses statistical significance after the third-year post-transplantation.

    abstract::Serotonin (5-hydroxytryptamine; 5-HT), a vasoactive bioamine with potent contractile activity, is thought to act indirectly in the urinary bladder by the stimulation of its presynaptic receptors.
