RESUMO

We describe the epidemiology of cancer after kidney transplantation (KTx), investigating its risk factors and impact on therapeutic management and survival in KTx recipients (KTRs). The association between modification of immunosuppressive (IS) therapy after cancer and survival outcomes was analyzed. We collected data from 930 KTRs followed for 7 [1-19] years. The majority of KTRs received KTx from a deceased donor (84%). In total, 74% of patients received induction therapy with basiliximab and 26% with ATG. Maintenance therapy included steroids, calcineurin inhibitors, and mycophenolate. Patients with at least one cancer (CA+) amounted to 19%. NMSC was the most common tumor (55%). CA+ were older and had a higher BMI. Vasculitis and ADPKD were more prevalent in CA+. ATG was independently associated with CA+ and was related to earlier cancer development in survival and competing risk analyses (p = 0.01 and <0.0001; basiliximab 89 ± 4 vs. ATG 40 ± 4 months). After cancer diagnosis, a significant prognostic impact was derived from the shift to mTOR inhibitors compared to a definitive IS drug suspension (p = 0.004). Our data confirm the relevance of cancer as a complication in KTRs with ATG as an independent risk factor. An individualized choice of IS to be proposed at the time of KTx is crucial in the prevention of neoplastic risk. Finally, switching to mTORi could represent an important strategy to improve patient survival.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Surgical site infection (SSI) is the major complication in orthotopic liver transplantation (LT). It is of prime importance to assess the incidence of infections in liver transplants and to analyze the risk factors associated with morbidity and mortality. METHODS: Between 2014 and 2019, we performed a retrospective cohort study at the Foundation IRCCS Ca' Granda Ospedale Maggiore Policlinico, Milan, Italy. The liver transplant procedure and its related infections were examined in 4 timepoints, both prior and post-surgery. Multiple random-intercept Poisson regression models with robust variance were fitted to calculate the adjusted risk ratios (RR) and the 95% confidence intervals (CI) according to selected recipient and donor variables. RESULTS: We included in the analysis 249 transplants (in 241 patients). The SSIs (mostly due to S. aureus, E. faecium, and K. pneumoniae) were 7 (2.8%) in the days following LT, increasing to 61 (24.5%) within the first month after LT, and declining to 35 (14.1%) between 31 and 60 days, and to 19 (7.6%) afterwards. The factors associated with increased risk of infection were age (RR=1.17 per 10 years, CI: 0.99-1.38), BMI (RR=1.04 per BMI Unit, CI: 0.99-1.08), donor age (RR=0.88 per 10 years, CI: 0.78-0.98), re-interventions (30 infections, RR=2.02, CI: 1.21-3.38) and the Roux-en-Y approach (25 infections, RR=2.75, CI: 1.47-5.15). CONCLUSIONS: The risk of infection occurred mainly in the first two months after LT. Important determinants were age and BMI, donor age, reinterventions, and Roux-en-Y procedure. Our study suggests that these factors should be assessed when performing LT.

RESUMO

Purpose: We studied the association between parathormone (PTH) levels and long-term graft loss in RTx patients (RTx-p). Methods: We retrospectively evaluated 871 RTx-p, transplanted in our unit from Jan-2004 to Dec-2020 assessing renal function and mineral metabolism parameters at 1, 6, and 12 months after RTx. Graft loss and death with functioning graft during follow-up (FU, 8.3[5.4-11.4] years) were checked. Results: At month-1, 79% had HPT, of which 63% with secondary HPT (SHPT) and 16% tertiary HPT (THPT); at month-6, HPT prevalence was 80% of which SHPT 64% and THPT 16%; at month-12 HPT prevalence was 77% of which SHPT 62% and THPT 15%. A strong significant correlation was found between HPT type, PTH levels and graft loss at every time point. Mean PTH exposure remained strongly and independently associated to long term graft loss (OR 3.1 [1.4-7.1], p = 0.008). THPT was independently associated with graft loss at month-1 when compared to HPT absence and at every time point when compared to SHPT. No correlation was found with RTx-p death. Discriminatory analyses identified the best mean PTH cut-off to predict long-term graft loss to be between 88.6 and 89.9 pg/mL (AUC = 0.658). Cox regression analyses highlighted that THPT was strongly associated with shorter long-term graft survival at every time-point considered. Conclusion: High PTH levels during 1st year of RTx seem to be associated with long term graft loss.
