Current practices in prevention, screening, and treatment of diabetes in kidney transplant recipients: European survey highlights from the ERA DESCARTES Working Group
Laghrib Y, Hilbrands L, Oniscu G, Crespo M, Gandolfini I, Mariat C, et al.
Clin Kidney J . 2025 Jan; 18(1):sfae367. PMID: 39839808
Background: Although post-transplant diabetes mellitus (PTDM) is a common complication after kidney transplantation, there are few data on prevention, optimal screening, and treatment strategies. Methods: The European Renal Association's DESCARTES...

Renal sympathetic denervation 2024 in Austria: recommendations from the Austrian Society of Hypertension : Endorsed by the Austrian Society of Nephrology and the Working Group of Interventional Cardiology of the Austrian Society of Cardiology
Zweiker D, Koppelstatter C, Hohenstein K, Lang I, Perl S, Bugger H, et al.
Wien Klin Wochenschr . 2024 Sep; 136(Suppl 14):559-569. PMID: 39311980
Renal sympathetic denervation (RDN) is an interventional supplement to medical treatment in patients with arterial hypertension. While the first sham-controlled trial, SYMPLICITY HTN‑3 was neutral, with improved procedural details, patient...

Novel transcriptomic signatures associated with premature kidney allograft failure
Hruba P, Klema J, Le A, Girmanova E, Mrazova P, Massart A, et al.
EBioMedicine . 2023 Sep; 96:104782. PMID: 37660534
Background: The power to predict kidney allograft outcomes based on non-invasive assays is limited. Assessment of operational tolerance (OT) patients allows us to identify transcriptomic signatures of true non-responders for...

Immunosuppression of HLA identical living-donor kidney transplant recipients: A systematic review
Perez-Saez M, Montero N, Oliveras L, Redondo-Pachon D, Martinez-Simon D, Abramovicz D, et al.
Transplant Rev (Orlando) . 2023 Sep; 37(4):100787. PMID: 37657355
Background: Kidney transplant (KT) recipients of HLA identical siblings (HLAid) have lower immunological risk, but there are no specific recommendations for immunosuppression. Our aim was to analyze evidence about results...

The 3-Step Model of informed consent for living kidney donation: a proposal on behalf of the DESCaRTES Working Group of the European Renal Association
Grossi A, Sever M, Hellemans R, Mariat C, Crespo M, Watschinger B, et al.
Nephrol Dial Transplant . 2023 Jan; 38(7):1613-1622. PMID: 36702535
Living donation challenges the ethical principle of non-maleficence in that it exposes healthy persons to risks for the benefit of someone else. This makes safety, informed consent (IC) and education...

In-Depth Analysis of the Extracorporeal Proteome Adsorbed to Dialysis Membranes during Hemodialysis
Daniel-Fischer L, Sobieszek I, Wagner A, Sacnun J, Watschinger B, Aufricht C, et al.
Membranes (Basel) . 2022 Nov; 12(11). PMID: 36363675
Used hemodialysis membranes (HD-M) are a valuable reservoir of biological information. Proteins bind to HD-M, but whether this process depends on the type of membrane or patient factors or selectively...

Ethical and medical dilemmas in paid living kidney donor transplantation
Sever M, Van Biesen W, Vanholder R, Mallick N, London G, Schena F, et al.
Transplant Rev (Orlando) . 2022 Sep; 36(4):100726. PMID: 36113305
Due to the shortage of deceased and genetically- or emotionally-related living donors, living unrelated paid donor (LURpD) kidney transplantation has been considered; however, this practice may result in medical, ethical...

Kidney transplantation during mass disasters - from COVID-19 to other catastrophes A Consensus Statement by the DESCARTES Working Group and Ethics Committee of the ERA
Sever M, Vanholder R, Oniscu G, Abramowicz D, Van Biesen W, Maggiore U, et al.
Nephrol Dial Transplant . 2022 Sep; 38(2):300–308. PMID: 36066915
Mass disasters are characterized by a disparity between health care demand and supply, which hampers complex therapies like kidney transplantation. Considering scarcity of publications on previous disasters, we reviewed transplantation...

Front Med (Lausanne) . 2022 Jan; 8:791087. PMID: 35071271
The absolute BK viral load is an important diagnostic surrogate for BK polyomavirus associated nephropathy (PyVAN) after renal transplant (KTX) and serial assessment of BK viremia is recommended. However, there...
