International urology and nephrology, Nov 30, 2023OBJECTIVES: About 90% of Japanese kidney transplantations are conducted from living donors, and their safety and the maintenance of their renal function are critical. This study aims to identify factors that affect the compensation of renal function in living kidney donors after donor nephrectomy. METHOD: In a retrospective cohort study, we reviewed data from 120 patients who underwent nephrectomy as living kidney transplant donors in our department from 2012 to 2021. Univariable and multivariable linear regression analyses were performed for donor factors affecting renal function after donor nephrectomy. RESULT: The multivariable linear regression model revealed that the donor's age (p = 0.025), preoperative estimated Glomerular Filtration Rate (eGFR) (p < 0.001), and hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) (p = 0.043) were independent risk factors for eGFR at six months after nephrectomy. The eGFR deterioration was more strongly associated with age in females than in males, whereas higher HbA1c values were more strongly associated with eGFR deterioration in males. Higher donor age and higher HbA1c each enhance the deterioration of eGFR six months after living donor nephrectomy. The data suggest that old age in especially female donors and preoperative higher HbA1c in male donors have a harmful impact on their renal function compensation.

Fujita medical journal, 9(3) 194-199, Aug, 2023OBJECTIVES: Type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) patients with diabetic kidney disease-induced kidney failure have a significantly impaired quality of life (QOL), resulting in a high level of physical, mental, and social anxiety. In this study, we evaluated the QOL of T1DM patients on the list for pancreas transplantation (PTx) at their registration, and determined whether PTx improved their QOL. METHODS: There were 58 patients (men/women, 22/36; mean age, 42.8±8.0 years) with T1DM and who were registered on the waiting list for PTx. Quantitative QOL assessment was performed using the Medical Health Survey Short Form (SF-36) version 2. Changes in the QOL before and after PTx were also examined in 24 of these patients. RESULTS: The mean value of each endpoint and the summary score of the SF-36 physical (PCS), mental (MCS), and role (RCS) components were all below the national normal level at PTx registration. No significant difference in QOL scores was observed in the intergroup comparison of 35 patients on dialysis, 13 patients without dialysis, and ten patients after kidney transplantation. The 24 patients who underwent PTx showed improvement in PCS, MCS, and most SF-36 scores. CONCLUSION: T1DM patients waiting for PTx had a decreased QOL, regardless of dialysis, and PTx improved their QOL.

胆と膵, 38(9) 821-826, Sep, 2017膵移植は1型糖尿病の唯一の現時点で確立された根治療法である。本稿では膵移植手術に関して、術式の分類、摘出から移植までの手技、そして最近の術式のUp-to-Dateを紹介する。膵移植の分類として腎移植との関係から膵腎同時移植(simultaneous pancreas and kidney transplantation:SPK)、腎移植後膵臓移植(pancreas after kidney transplantation:PAK)、膵単独移植(pancreas transplantation alone:PTA)の三つに分類される。また膵液ドレナージの方法から腸管ドレナージと膀胱ドレナージの二つに分類される。摘出手技は肝グラフトとの血管のシェアリングがポイントとなる。一方、移植手技は血栓症の予防が最大の課題であり、静脈吻合部狭窄とならないように細心の注意を要する。最近の術式のUp-to-Dateとして、GDA-CHA I-graft再建の必要性、portal drainageの是非、robotic pancreas transplantationなどについて解説する。(著者抄録)

移植, 51(4-5) 355-370, Oct, 2016<p>The aim of the present study was to reveal the long-term outcomes of pancreas transplantation and to elucidate the risk factors that affect pancreatic graft survival in Japan.<br/>We retrospectively analyzed a total of 246 cases of pancreas transplantation. After the exclusion of cases involving graft loss resulting from perioperative complications, the cases of 233 patients who underwent pancreas transplantation were divided into two groups: the simultaneous pancreas and kidney transplantation (SPK) group (n=188) and the pancreas transplantation after kidney and pancreas transplantation alone (PT) group (n=45) ; each group was analyzed to determine the factors associated with pancreatic graft survival.<br/>The pancreatic graft survival rates at 1, 5, and 10 years after transplantation were 86.8%, 82.9%, and 74.9%, respectively, in the cases of SPK; and 85.1%, 42.2%, and 31.7%, respectively, in the cases of pancreas transplantation after kidney and pancreas transplantation alone, which amounted to a significant difference (P=4.81×10‐5). Episodes of rejection made pancreatic survival significantly lower in both groups. A multivariate analysis using Cox proportional hazards regression revealed that the preoperative period of diabetes (hazard ratio, 1.065; 95%CI, 1.009-1.125; P=0.02341) was significantly associated with pancreatic graft survival in the SPK group. HLA-A mismatch (hazard ratio, 2.153; 95%CI, 1.073-4.321; P= 0.03101) was the only factor associated with pancreatic graft survival in the PT group. Although the difference did not reach statistical significance, it was suggested that induction therapy with a T-cell depleting antibody would improve the rate of pancreatic graft survival in both groups.<br/>In spite of the severe shortage of donors in Japan, simultaneous pancreas and kidney transplantation should be performed for type 1 diabetes patients with end-stage renal failure in the earlier stage, and HLA-A matching should be considered when selecting recipients to improve the rate of pancreatic graft survival in the PT group.</p>
