Kidney transplantation was first introduced in Italy in 1966 by the II Surgical Pathology of the University of Rome giving a great contribution to the development of the transplant surgery in this country. The authors report their 25-year experience analyzing the results obtained in more than 700 kidney allografts. A progressive refinement in the surgical transplant technique both from cadaver and live as well as clinical trials on new immunosuppressive protocols characterized their work.

Objectives: Sleep quality in kidney transplant recipients is closely associated with symptoms of fatigue and depression. Although subjective assessment tools like the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index and the Richards-Campbell Sleep Questionnaire (RCSQ) are widely used to evaluate sleep quality, there is a lack of studies utilizing polysomnography for objective evaluation. This study aims to investigate the correlation between sleep quality, fatigue, and depression in kidney transplant recipients using both subjective and objective methods, providing scientific evidence for improving their quality of life.

Acute and chronic graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) are decisive determinants for allogeneic HSCT success. The immunosuppressive agent, ciclosporin A, is most often used to prevent GVHD in pediatric patients, but is known to be nephrotoxic.

Increasing evidence suggests that dysbiosis of gut microbiota exacerbates chronic kidney disease (CKD) progression. Curcumin (CUR) has been reported to alleviate renal fibrosis in animal models of CKD. However, the relationship between CUR and gut microbiome in CKD remains unclear.
