Variability in donation after cardiac death protocols: a national survey.

abstract：BACKGROUND:Persistent massive ascites (PMAS) longer than 14 days after living donor liver transplantation is not uncommon and associated with worse outcome. A predictive risk scoring system was constructed after analysis of recipient, graft, and surgery-related factors. METHODS:We retrospectively reviewed adult living...

abstract：:A major impediment to the wider application of clinical liver transplantation is the paucity of acceptable organs. Most centers refuse organs that come from donors who are hepatitis B core antibody positive because of a fear of transmission of hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection to the recipient. The risk related to the...

abstract：BACKGROUND:FK506-binding proteins (FKBP) are immunophilins that interact with the immunosuppressive drugs FK506 and rapamycin. Several FKBP family members such as FKBP12, FKBP12.6, and FKBP51 are expressed in T cells. It has been speculated that these FKBPs are possibly redundant in the immunosuppressant-induced T-cell...
