Purpose: We intend to investigate the association between tacrolimus-induced new-onset diabetes after transplantation (NODAT) and polymorphisms of CYP3A4, CYP3A5, ATP-binding cassette transporter sub-family C member 8 (ABCC8), and glucokinase (GCK) in renal transplant recipients.
Methods: Polymorphisms of CYP3A4 *18B, CYP3A5 *3, ABCC8 T-3C, and GCK G-30A were genotyped in 169 renal transplant recipients. Trough concentrations of tacrolimus were detected by an ELISA kit. The relative materials were collected in all patients and volunteers. The association of NODAT and polymorphisms was analyzed.
Results: CYP3A4 *18B and GCK G-30A were related to NODAT (p < 0.05). The lower concentration/dose or fasting serum glucose was in CYP3A4 *1/*1 carriers than that in *18B/*18B carriers in all the renal transplant recipients (p < 0.05), respectively. Genotype of ABCC8 T-3C was associated with fasting serum glucose in both NODAT and non-NODAT patients (p < 0.05). Furthermore, family history of DM (OR = 3.734, p = 0.002), concentration/dose above 70 ([ng/mL]/[mg/kg]) (OR = 2.154, p = 0.034) and GCK G-30A (OR = 2.272, p = 0.026) were independently correlated with the incidence of NODAT in logistic regression.
Conclusions: The polymorphisms of CYP3A4 *18B and GCK G-30A were related to NODAT induced by tacrolimus.

Alcohol-induced gut microbial reorganization and associated overproduction of phenylacetylglutamine promotes cardiovascular disease.
Nat Commun

The mechanism(s) underlying gut microbial metabolite (GMM) contribution towards alcohol-mediated cardiovascular disease (CVD) is unknown. Herein we observe elevation in circulating phenylacetylglutamine (PAGln), a known CVD-associated GMM, in individuals living with alcohol use disorder. In a male murine binge-on-chronic alcohol model, we confirm gut microbial reorganization, elevation in PAGln levels, and the presence of cardiovascular pathophysiology.

Introduction: End-stage kidney disease patients face a critical decision regarding kidney replacement therapy options, which include kidney transplantation, hemodialysis, or peritoneal dialysis (PD). This study aims to evaluate the impact of nurse-led education (NE) alone vs. NE combined with peer support on the patients' decision over PD treatment in chronic kidney disease patients.

Glickman Urological & Kidney Institute, Cleveland Clinic, Cleveland, Ohio, USA.
Background: Enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) protocols have gained widespread acceptance as a means to enhance surgical outcomes. However, the intricate care required for kidney transplant recipients has not yet led to the establishment of a universally recognized and dependable ERAS protocol for kidney transplantation.
Objective: We devised a customized ERAS protocol to determine its effectiveness in improving surgical and postoperative outcomes among kidney transplant recipients.
Do Factors Influencing Acceptance of Kidney Stone Formers as Donors Predict Subsequent Stone Events?
Clin Transplant
January 2025
Division of Nephrology and Hypertension, Mayo Clinic, Rochester, Minnesota, USA.
Purpose: This study aimed to assess whether kidney stone burden and risk factors at the time of kidney donor evaluation were associated with a symptomatic stone event post-donor evaluation.
Methods: We identified adults evaluated at Mayo Clinic (two sites) (2000-2011) for living kidney donation and had either a personal history or radiological evidence of kidney stone disease. We analyzed demographics, stone risk factors, stone number/size, and the committee's donation decision and reasons.
Diagnostic Accuracy of High-Resolution Computed Tomography (HRCT) in Detecting Pneumocystis carinii in Renal Transplant Patients With Pulmonary Infection: A Study Using Bronchoalveolar Lavage As the Gold Standard.

Introduction: Patients receiving renal transplants have weakened immune systems and are more vulnerable to lung infections.
Objectives: To determine the diagnostic accuracy of high-resolution computed tomography (HRCT) in detecting pneumocystis carinii in renal transplant patients presenting with pulmonary infection in a tertiary care transplant center, keeping bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) as the gold standard.
Methods: This cross-sectional study was conducted at the Department of Radiology, Sindh Institute of Urology and Transplant, Karachi, from February 14, 2023, to August 13, 2023.
