Abstract
Background
Various clinicopathologic markers, such as 1-year serum creatinine (Cr), have been used to prognosticate kidney allografts after transplantation. However, a contemporary analysis of their relationship with long-term graft survival is lacking. This study aimed to analyze recent data on the association of prognostic factors with kidney allograft survival in patients who underwent transplantation in the modern era.
Methods
Adult kidney-transplant recipients in the UNOS database (2008-2020) were identified. Living and deceased donor allografts were analyzed separately and stratified by 1-year serum Cr level: ≤1.0, 1.0 to 1.5, 1.5 to 2.0, and >2.0 mg/dL. Time-to-event analysis was performed with long-term death-censored graft survival as the primary outcome. In addition, factors associated with raised 1-year serum Cr and with long-term allograft failure were identified.
Results
174,547 patients were included. Ten-year survival decreased with increasing 1-year creatinine, and these trends persisted on adjusted analysis for both living donor (Cr ≤ 1.0 mg/dL: reference; Cr 1.0-1.5 mg/dL aHR = 1.77 [1.59-1.96]; Cr 1.5-2.0 mg/dL aHR = 3.24 [2.89-3.64] and; Cr > 2.0 mg/dL aHR = 9.78, [8.64-11.07], P < .01) as well as deceased donor allografts (Cr ≤ 1.0 mg/dL: reference; Cr 1.0-1.5 mg/dL aHR = 1.74 [1.63-1.86]; Cr 1.5-2.0 mg/dL aHR = 3.06 [2.84-3.30] and; Cr > 2.0 mg/dL aHR = 8.51, [7.89-9.18], P < .01).
Conclusion
These results characterize the association between 1-year serum creatinine levels and other clinicopathologic factors with long-term kidney allograft survival. We demonstrate the ability of prognostic factors to stratify patients by risk of graft failure in a contemporary patient cohort that is representative of current practice and outcomes.
期刊介绍:
Transplantation Proceedings publishes several different categories of manuscripts, all of which undergo extensive peer review by recognized authorities in the field prior to their acceptance for publication.
The first type of manuscripts consists of sets of papers providing an in-depth expression of the current state of the art in various rapidly developing components of world transplantation biology and medicine. These manuscripts emanate from congresses of the affiliated transplantation societies, from Symposia sponsored by the Societies, as well as special Conferences and Workshops covering related topics.
Transplantation Proceedings also publishes several special sections including publication of Clinical Transplantation Proceedings, being rapid original contributions of preclinical and clinical experiences. These manuscripts undergo review by members of the Editorial Board.
Original basic or clinical science articles, clinical trials and case studies can be submitted to the journal?s open access companion title Transplantation Reports.
