Popis: | Delayed graft function (DGF) in a deceased-donor renal recipient is associated with allograft dysfunction 1-year posttransplant. There is limited research about the influence to allograft function on the mate of a DGF recipient over time. Using a retrospective cohort design, we studied 55 recipients from a single center. The primary outcome was the change in glomerular filtration rate (GFR) 1-year posttransplant. The secondary outcome was the GFR at baseline. We found that mates to DGF recipients had a mean change in GFR 1-year posttransplant of −11.2 mL/min, while the control group had a mean change of −0.4 mL/min. The difference in the primary outcome was significant (p = 0.025) in a multivariate analysis, adjusting for cold ischemic time, panel reactive antibody level, allograft loss, human leukocyte antibody (HLA)-B mismatches and HLA-DR mismatches. No significant difference between groups was found in baseline GFR. In conclusion, mates to DGF recipients had a significantly larger decline in allograft function 1-year posttransplant compared to controls with similar renal function at baseline. We believe strategies that may preserve allograft function in these‘at-risk’recipients should be developed and tested. |
