Roberts M, Pilmore H, Ierino F, Badve S, Cass A, Garg A, et al.
Am J Kidney Dis . 2016 Jan; 67(6):902-11. PMID: 26717861
Background: β-Blocking agents reduce cardiovascular mortality in patients with heart disease, but their potential benefit in dialysis patients is unclear. We aimed to determine the feasibility of a randomized controlled...

Crawford K, Low J, Manias E, Walker R, Toussaint N, Mulley W, et al.
J Eval Clin Pract . 2015 Sep; 21(5):879-85. PMID: 26371625
Rationale, Aims And Objectives: Medication adherence is essential in kidney transplant recipients to reduce the risk of rejection and subsequent allograft loss. The aim of this study was to delineate...

Roberts M, Pilmore H, Ierino F, Badve S, Cass A, Garg A, et al.
Nephrology (Carlton) . 2014 Nov; 20(3):140-7. PMID: 25382452
Aims: The Beta-blocker to LOwer CArdiovascular Dialysis Events (BLOCADE) Feasibility Study aims to determine the feasibility of a large-scale randomized controlled trial with clinical endpoints comparing the beta-blocking agent carvedilol...

Roberts M, Hare D, Sikaris K, Ierino F
Clin J Am Soc Nephrol . 2014 Apr; 9(6):1024-32. PMID: 24721887
Background And Objectives: B-type natriuretic peptide (BNP) concentration predicts outcome in patients undergoing dialysis. Because survival and cardiovascular risk change across the CKD continuum, serial changes in BNP were compared...

Transplantation . 2011 May; 91(10):1090-7. PMID: 21544030
Background: Blockade of the inducible costimulator (ICOS) pathway has been shown to prolong allograft survival; however, its utility in xenotransplantation is unknown. We hypothesize that local expression of ICOS-Ig by...
