Plasma high-sensitivity C-reactive protein measured prior to transplant is related to prediabetes in first-year kidney transplant recipients: A single-center cross-sectional study in Vietnam.

Aim: To determine the rate of prediabetes among and the pre-transplant plasma high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP) value predictive of prediabetes in patients during their first year post-living donor kidney transplant.

Methods: A total of 538 patients underwent living donor kidney transplantation between January 2018 and December 2020, 413 of whom met the inclusion criteria for this study. All patients underwent oral glucose tolerance tests (OGTTs) with 75 g glucose/200 mL solution, starting 3 months post-transplant and repeating the test every 3 months for the first year.

Neutrophil: Lymphocyte and Platelet: Lymphocyte ratios measured before transplantation and their correlation with new-onset diabetes post-transplantation in renal transplant recipients.

Purpose: Our goal was to evaluate the neutrophil:lymphocyte (NLR) and platelet:lymphocyte (PLR) ratios measured before transplantation and their correlation with new-onset diabetes after transplantation (NODAT) in renal transplant recipients.

Patients And Methods: We conducted our study in 324 adult patients consecutively admitted to Military Hospital 103, Ha Noi, Viet Nam, who received kidney allografts from living donors. These patients were followed-up during the first 2 years post-transplantation for NODAT.

Association of serum adiponectin and leptin levels with renal function in kidney transplant recipients with or without new-onset diabetes after transplantation.

Purpose: To evaluate serum adiponectin and leptin concentration in new-onset diabetes after transplantation (NODAT) and non-NODAT patients and association with renal function in kidney transplant recipients (KTRs).

Patients And Methods: A study of 314 consecutive adults KTRs divided into four groups: 236 individuals without NODAT who had renal insufficiency (RI; n = 56) or normal renal function (n = 180) and 78 patients with NODAT who had RI (n = 17) or normal renal function (n = 61). NODAT was diagnosed based on venous fasting blood glucose or HbA1c with the criteria of the American Diabetes Association.

Serum hs-CRP measured prior transplantation predicts of new-onset diabetes after transplantation in renal transplant recipients.

Background: To assess the incidence of new-onset diabetes after transplantation (NODAT) for the first year post-transplantation and the predictive value of high-sensitivity C-reactive Protein (hs-CRP) before transplantation for NODAT prediction in kidney transplantation patients.

Material And Methods: A study of 251 consecutive adult end-stage kidney disease patients transplanted kidneys from living donors, follow-up during the first year to find NODAT. We diagnosed NODAT based on blood glucose or HbA1c following to the criteria of the American Diabetes Association.
