Objective:To measure serum cell-free DNA (cf-DNA) and donor-derived cell-free DNA (ddcf-DNA) in simultaneous pancreas-kidney transplantation recipients by the next generation sequencing technology and evaluate the relationship between ddcf-DNA and early acute rejection (AR).Methods:A total of 20 recipients who underwent simultaneous pancreas-kidney transplantation in the Department of Organ Transplantation, the Second Affiliated Hospital of Guangzhou Medical University from June 2019 to June 2021 were enrolled. According to whether there was AR after operation, the 20 recipients were divided into two groups: control group (10 cases) and AR group (10 cases). Three recipients in the control group were selected as the observation group by the random number table. The serum levels of ddcf-DNA were measured before transplantation, 2 h after recanalization of blood vessel of transplanted pancreas, and 1, 3, 7, 14, 30, and 60 d after transplantation. The levels of serum ddcf-DNA in the other 7 recipients in the control group were measured before and 14 and 30 d after transplantation. Meanwhile, the testing time points of serum ddcf-DNA in AR group were as follows: before operation, during rejection and after reversal of rejection. The measurement data of normal distribution between the two groups were compared by group t test. Fisher′s exact probability method was used for counting data comparison. P<0.05 means the difference was statistically significant.Results:The length of ddcf-DNA fragment was 110-350 bp. The length of cf-DNA fragment from the recipients was 100-420 bp. Three recipients in the observation group were marked as cases 1, 2 and 3, respectively. The content of ddcf-DNA of the 3 recipients before operation were 0.49%, 0.55% and 0.32%, respectively. The content of ddcf-DNA increased sharply to 12.05%, 10.64% and 11.05% 2 h after recanalization, and reached its peak after blood flow restored. At the first day after transplantation, the level of ddcf-DNA showed a significant downward trend, and reached a stable state about 30 d after transplantation. The content of ddcf-DNA was (0.71%±0.09%) in the control group and (0.66±0.10)% in the AR group. There was no significant difference between the two groups (t=1.126, P>0.05). The time of diagnosis of rejection in AR group was (17±4) d after transplantation, and the content of serum ddcf-DNA was (5.4±2.0)% when AR was confirmed; while the content of serum ddcf-DNA in the control group was (1.70±0.48)% 2 weeks after transplantation, and the difference was statistically significant (t=-5.59, P<0.05). The rejection was reversed and the recipients condition were stable at (27 ± 4) d after transplantation in the AR group, at which time the content of ddcf-DNA was (0.93 ± 0.32)%. The content of ddcf-DNA in the control group was (0.87±0.25)% on the 30th day after transplantation, and the difference was not statistically significant between the 2 groups (t=-0.497, P>0.05).Conclusions:The serum ddcf-DNA in simultaneous pancreas-kidney transplantation recipients increased significantly when AR occurred. When AR was reversed, the content of ddcf-DNA showed a significant downward trend.
Objective:To explore the clinical efficacy of aspirin plus low molecule heparin for pancreatic thrombosis during simultaneous pancreas and kidney transplantation (SPK).Methods:A total of 129 patients aged 18 years or higher underwent SPK between September 2016 and March 2020.They were divided retrospectively into two groups of aspirin ( n=60) and heparin ( n=69) according to different anticoagulant regimens.The aspirin group received only aspirin 100 mg/d at Day 1 post-operation.The heparin group received subcutaneous injection of enoxaparin 2 000 AxaIU daily for 7 days and followed by aspirin and clopidogrel.Outcomes and complication rates were compared between two groups. Results:All operations were successful without any mortality.In aspirin group, there were 5 cases of pancreatic thrombosis and one patient underwent pancreatectomy.There was no pancreatic thrombosis in heparin group ( P=0.014). There were 8 cases of intestinal anastomotic bleeding in aspirin group and 19 cases in heparin group.Statistically significant inter-group difference existed ( P=0.048). However, no significant inter-group difference existed in delayed recovery or rejection. Conclusions:Heparin anticoagulation can significantly lower the incidence of pancreatic thrombosis after SPK.Despite a higher incidence of intestinal anastomotic bleeding, no serious complication occurs after conservative meaures.
Objective:To analyze the association of pre-transplant risk factors with diabetes mellitus after renal transplantation and examine the significance of preventing the occurrence in kidney transplantation recipients.Methods:A total of 290 kidney transplantation recipients were retrospectively reviewed at our transplantation center from August 2018 to May 2020.Diabetes mellitus after renal transplantation was employed as a primary outcome index.Multivariate Logistic regression model was utilized for constructing A (without adjusting for covariates)、B(covariates include: gender, dialysis mode, type of donation)and C(covariates include: gender, dialysis mode, type of donation, calcineurin inhibitor, antiproliferative drugs, primary disease, fasting blood glucose, 1 h postprandial blood glucose, fasting C peptide, 1 h and 2 h postprandial C peptide, fasting C-peptide index, 1 h postprandial C-peptide index, albumin, triglycerides, total cholesterol)to evaluate the relationship between diabetes mellitus after transplantation and age, body mass index, 2 h postprandial blood glucose(2 h-PG), HbA1c, and 2 h postprandial C-peptide index(2 h-CPI).Results:In model A, age [odds ratio(OR)1.1, 95% confidence interval( CI)1.0~1.1], BMI(OR 1.2, 95% CI 1.0~1.3), 2 h PG(OR 1.2, 95% CI 1.1~1.4), HbA1c(OR 2.7, 95% CI 1.5~4.9), 2 h-CPI(OR 0.7, 95% CI 0.5~1.0), model B/C had similar results with A. Age, BMI, 2 h PG and HbA1c were all risk factors for diabetes mellitus after transplantation while 2 h-CPI was a protective factor.Quartile stratification was analyzed by regression model.And trend test was significant( P<0.05). Conclusions:Age, BMI, 2 h PG, HbA1c and 2 h-CPI are correlated with diabetes mellitus after kidney transplantation.
Objective:To explore the efficacy and safety of simultaneous pancreas and kidney transplantation(SPK)from donors of different ages.Methods:A total of 146 SPK operations were completed at Second Affiliated Hospital of Guangzhou Medical University from September 2016 to June 2020. The donors were divided into three groups: < 18 yrs group(18 cases), 18 to 39 yrs group(85 cases)and 40 yrs and up group(43 cases). The similarities and differences of SPK efficacy were analyzed for different ages.Results:During a follow-up period of (1~45) months, no statistically significant differences existed in postoperative recovery time, transplanted renal function or transplanted pancreatic function. Graft function at 10 days post-operation normalized and no statistical difference existed among three groups. Glycosylated hemoglobin of three groups at 6 month showed no statistical difference among three groups. Medical complication was perioperative infection. And acute rejection was manifested as pancreas duodenum rejection. The incidence of three groups were 0.06, 0.22 and 0.16; the incidence of kidney acute rejection 0.11, 0.05 and 0.09; the incidence of combined acute pancreas and kidney rejection 0.11, 0.05 and 0.09 and three groups showed no statistical difference. Severe surgical complication was poor healing of incision. The incidence of three groups were 0.11, 0.13 and 0.14 and the major serious complications included intestinal leakage, arterial thrombosis and venous thrombosis. The incidence of intestinal leakage in three groups were 0, 0.01 and 0.05, arterial thrombosis 0, 0.01 and 0.05 and venous thrombosis 0, 0 and 0.05 respectively. Thus no statistical difference existed in the incidence of surgical complications. Patient survival rates in 1-year and 3-year post-transplantation in three groups were 85.0%, 95.0% and 90.4%; pancreatic graft survival rates 85%, 91% and 85.8%; despite death, the pancreatic graft survival rates were 100%, 95.8% and 90.6%; kidney graft survival rate 85.0%, 95.0% and 90.4%.Conclusions:After thorough evaluations, detailed surgical procedures and refined surgical skills, SPK from pediatric and elderly donors with certain age limits has similar clinical outcomes to that from adult donors. Besides, elderly donors still need to be carefully evaluated and long-term follow-ups should be further observed.
Objective: To investigate the clinical effect of ipsilateral simultaneous pancreas and kidney transplantation (SPK). Methods: A total of 146 cases of SPK surgeries completed in the Second Affiliated Hospital of Guangzhou Medical University from September 2016 to June 2020 were selected to summarize the outcome, curative effect and complications of the operation. Results: The patients were followed up for 1 to 45 months. Good clinical results were obtained in 146 patients. Renal function indicators suggest that on the 7th day after operation, the serum creatinine returned to normal level [142.4 (108.6, 213.4)μmol/L]. The index of pancreatic function decreased to the normal level as expected. The level of blood amylase was 160.5(109.3, 249.8) U/L within 7 days after operation, and then decreased. The trend of urinary amylase was similar to that of blood amylase, which was 240(121.0, 370.0) U/L 7 days after operation, and glycosylated hemoglobin decreased to the normal level (5.8%±1.4%) 1 month after operation. The main medical complications were infection including pulmonary infection (26.03%, 38/146), urinary tract infection (26.03%,38/146), and abdominal infection (4.79%,7/146), acute rejection including renal graft rejection (5.8%,8/146), pancreas/duodenum rejection (18.49%,27/146), and renal graft combined pancreatic graft rejeciton (6.85%,10/146), as well as gastrointestinal bleeding (30.82%,45/146), of which 5 cases were severe bleeding (3.42%, 5/146). The main surgical complications were poor incision healing (10.27%, 15/146), serious surgical complications including arteriovenous thrombosis of the transplanted pancreas (2.05%, 3/146) and intestinal leakage (0.68%,1/146). The 1-year and 3-year patient, renal and pancreatic survival rates were both 92.5%, 91.5% and 89.5%, respectively, and despite the death, the 1-year, 3-year transplanted kidney survival rate was both 99.3%, and 95% for the the 1-year, 3-year pancreas survival rate. Conclusion: Strict preoperative evaluation of the function of large organs, reasonable surgical methods, perioperative anticoagulation, and prompt diagnosis of complications can achieve good clinical results for patients with SPK.
Objective: To summarize the efficacy and safety of the combination of rituximab and ATG as induction therapy in highly sensitized kidney transplant recipients. Methods: Clinical data of patients who received kidney transplantation from donation after cardiac death(DCD) in Organ Transplant Center of Second Affiliated Hospital of Guangzhou Medical University from January 1st 2015 to December 31th 2016 was retrospectively analyzed. Highly sensitized patients with over 30% active panel reactive antibody (PRA>30%) received rituximab, while non-sensitized recipients as controlled group. All selected patients were observed in the renal function, urine protein, hemogram and the variation of PRA at each time point. Acute rejection, infection required hospitalization, delayed graft function(DGF), primary nonfunction (PNF), graft dysfunction, the mortality rate of patients with good allograft function and the graft survival rate were also observed. Results: 46 groups of patients were selected into highly-sensitized group and non-sensitized group. In both groups, there was no statistical difference in the renal function, urine protein and WBC (all P>0.05). Highly sensitized recipients at day 7 and day 14 following the surgery, had a significantly lower percentage of lymphocyte counts and lymphocyte proportion compared to other groups, with statistical differences(all P<0.05). Both groups had a similar incidence of DGF(2.2%) and no occurrence of PNF. 19.5% of highly sensitized recipients experienced acute rejection and 13% in control group. More specifically, no statistical difference was noted in the rate of infection required hospitalization(30.4% vs 22.2%), graft loss(2.2% vs 0) and the mortality rate of patients with good allograft function(4.3% vs 2.2%)(all P>0.05). The graft survival rate was 97.8% in the highly-sensitized group, while 100% in the control group. And the rate of patient survival in these two groups was 95.7% and 97.8%, with no statistical differences(all P>0.05). Conclusions: Immune-induction therapy that combines Rituximab with ATG can significantly inhibit lymphocyte proliferation. It is effective and safe in treating hypersensitive patients. The survival rate of human/kidney of hypersensitive patients in the short and medium term is comparable to those with low immune risk.

Objective To investigate the quality of life and psychological status of donors and recipients of living-related donor kidney transplantation. Methods Selected the treatment of living donors in the hospital (n = 80)and recipients(n = 80)from January 2014 to January 2017 as the research objects,and 80 cases of hemodialysis patients at the same period as the control group. Using the SF-36,Zung Self-rating Anxiety Scale (SAS),and the Self-rating Depression Scale(SDS)to evaluate the psychological status of the two groups and com-pared.Results Scores of donors′physiological function,and general health compared with the norms were not sig-nificant(P>0.05),while the somatic pain scores were significantly lower than the norms(P<0.05).There was no difference between the donors group and the norms in scores of vitality,social function and emotional function (P>0.05).The scores of physical health and mental health of recipients were significantly higher than those of the control group(P < 0.05). The donors′ SAS and SDS anxiety and depression scores were significantly higher than the norms(P<0.05).Besides,SAS and SDS anxiety and depression scores of the recipients were also significantly higher than the norms(P < 0.05),but significantly lower than the control group(P < 0.05). Conclusion The living-related donor kidney transplantation does not affect the quality of life and psychological state of the donor, but can improve the quality of life and reduce the anxiety and depression of the recipient.
Objective:To evaluate the effect of preoperative panel reactive antibody(PRA)levels on long-term survival after kidney transplantation. Methods:Data on 1 162 patients underwent first kidney transplantation performed between January 2001 and June 2014 were included in our center. According to the preoperative PRA levels,the patients were divided into negative group( PRA≤10%) and positive group( PRA>10%) ,which were retrospectively analyzed. Results: The 1-,5-,10-year patient survival rates of the negative group calculated by Kaplan-Meier were 96. 8%,89. 4%,78. 6%,respectively,while the positive group were 93. 5%,81. 6%, 65. 4%. The 1-,5-,10 -year death-censored graft survival rates of the negative group were 95. 9%,84. 8%,63. 1%,respectively,while the positive group were 92. 3%,74. 1%,51. 9%. The log-rank test revealed that there was significant difference between the patient and graft survival curves (χ2 =9. 623/11. 019, P=0. 002/0. 001 ) . Cox multivariate analysis found that preoperative PRA levels were independent risk factors for reducing the patient or graft survival rates(P<0. 001). Logistic multivariate regression analysis confirmed the significant association between preoperative PRA levels and the risk of acute rejection ( OR=8. 25,95% CI=2. 86-5. 72, P<0. 001). The 5-,10-year creatinine values were significantly lower in the negative group compared to the positive group(all P<0. 05), while there was no difference in the 1-year. In addition, Logistic multivariate regression analysis confirmed the significant association between preoperative PRA levels and the production of donor specific antibody(DSA)(OR=6. 89,95% CI=4. 52-9. 17,P<0. 05). Conclusion: The detection of preoperative PRA is an important indictor predicting the sensitivity status of the recipients. The preoperative PRA positive recipients need careful monitoring and diagnosis of acute rejection and DSA after kidney transplantation.
