Elevated Plasma CXCL8 Concentrations in Significant Fibrosis but Not in Subclinical Rejection After Adult Liver Transplantation.

Background: The noninvasive detection of subclinical graft injury including subclinical T cell-mediated rejection (subTCMR) is one of the unresolved challenges after liver transplantation. Recently, serum C-X-C motif chemokine ligand 8 (CXCL8) was proposed as a highly accurate marker of subTCMR in pediatric liver transplant recipients. We aimed to evaluate the accuracy of the quantification of this chemokine for predicting subTCMR in adult liver transplant recipients, as well as its capacity to classify patients who could benefit from immunosuppression reduction.

Magnesium batteries offer a safer alternative for next-generation battery technology due to their insusceptibility to dendrite deposition. Selective membranes tailored for magnesium-ion conduction will unlock further technological advancement. Herein, we demonstrate fluorine-free magnesiated sulfonated poly(ether ether ketone) (Mg-SPEEK) selective membranes capable of facilitating magnesium-ion conduction while effectively rejecting soluble organic species.

Transplant Direct
February 2025
Department of Clinical Medicine, Aarhus University, Aarhus, Denmark.
Background: Aortoiliac screening before kidney transplantation is suggested by some guidelines to select patients for transplantation and to assist surgical planning. We investigated the clinical outcomes of systematic screening for aortoiliac disease in potential kidney transplant candidates.
Methods: In this observational study, 470 potential kidney transplant candidates underwent aortoiliac computed tomography angiography.
Anti-Human Leukocyte Antigen Antibody Detection from Terasaki's Humoral Theory to Delisting Strategies in 2024.

The human leukocyte antigen (HLA) system plays a critical role in transplant immunology, influencing outcomes through various immune-mediated rejection mechanisms. Hyperacute rejection is driven by preformed donor-specific antibodies (DSAs) targeting HLAs, leading to complement activation and graft loss within hours to days. Acute rejection typically occurs within six months post-transplantation, involving cellular and humoral responses, including the formation of de novo DSAs.

Background/objectives: Fibromyalgia syndrome (FMS) is a chronic, debilitating condition characterized by widespread pain, fatigue, and psychological distress. There is a lack of qualitative studies on the unique experiences of patients with FMS in Arab countries, particularly through social media. Despite the availability of diagnostic criteria, diagnosing and managing patients remains challenging.
