Post-transplant oncologic outcomes after locoregional downstaging before living donor liver transplantation for hepatocellular carcinoma beyond Milan criteria: a systematic review and meta-analysis of selected cohorts
Downstaging of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) before liver transplantation is established mainly in the deceased donor setting, and outcomes before living donor liver transplantation (LDLT) remain unclear. We searched PubMed and Embase t...

When the model defines the message: methodological considerations in experimental lung warm ischemia
We read the article by Premachandra et al. "Resilience of lung grafts to warm ischemia: assessment by ex vivo perfusion using functional and molecular analysis" with great interest (1). We thank the authors for their comprehensive invest...

Logistics of clinical xenotransplantation: from donor pig production to global organ distribution
The shortage of transplantable organs remains one of the most significant unmet challenges in modern medicine. Despite advances in donor management, organ preservation, surgical techniques, and immunosuppression, organ demand continues t...

Stereotactic body radiation therapy and radioembolization as bridging strategies to liver transplantation: a retrospective real-world analysis
Dear Editors, Liver transplantation (LT) remains the most effective curative option for selected patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), addressing both tumor burden and the underlying liver disease. Selection has evolved beyond th...

Differences in excess mortality by recipient sex after liver transplant
Identification of sex differences in mortality may prompt sex-specific management strategies. Males worldwide have higher mortality than females; therefore, we compared sex differences in excess mortality. We compared excess mortality in...

Urinary CXCL10 for detection of rejection and infection at 1-year posttransplant
Urinary CXCL10 chemokine levels correlate with inflammatory processes in the reno-urinary tract after kidney transplantation. The aim of this study was to investigate the diagnostic characteristics of urinary CXCL10/creatinine ratio to d...

Changes in rat intestinal motility and absorption following intestinal transplantation: an experimental study
Intestinal transplantation (ITx) is a life-saving procedure for patients with complicated intestinal failure. In the acute phase, allograft permeability increases primarily due to ischemia-reperfusion injury. However, long-term allograft...

Lower lung donor PaO2/FiO2 ratio correlates with early primary graft dysfunction, but does not impact overall survival after lung transplantation: a dual center study
Extended criteria donor lungs falling below the arbitrarily set PaO 2 /FiO 2 (PFR) threshold of 300 are frequently declined despite other acceptable parameters. This two-center retrospective analysis investigates whether donor PFR is a r...

Risk of dialysis initiation within 20 years after living kidney donation in Japan: a period estimate from the national dialysis and transplant registries
Long-term renal prognosis of living kidney donors underpins informed consent. National estimates exist for the United States [1,2] and Norway [3], with age-specific projections [4]. Japanese donors differ: over 40% are spouses (unrelated...
