Abstract

BackgroundPatients on kidney replacement therapy (KRT) are at very high risk of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). The triage pathway for KRT patients presenting to hospitals with varying severity of COVID-19 illness remains ill-defined. We studied the clinical characteristics of patients at initial and subsequent hospital presentations and the impact on patient outcomes.MethodsThe European Renal Association COVID-19 Database (ERACODA) was analysed for clinical and laboratory features of 1423 KRT patients with COVID-19 either hospitalized or non-hospitalized at initial triage and those re-presenting a second time. Predictors of outcomes (hospitalization, 28-day mortality) were then determined for all those not hospitalized at initial triage.ResultsAmong 1423 KRT patients with COVID-19 [haemodialysis (HD), n = 1017; transplant, n = 406), 25% (n = 355) were not hospitalized at first presentation due to mild illness (30% HD, 13% transplant). Of the non-hospitalized patients, only 10% (n = 36) re-presented a second time, with a 5-day median interval between the two presentations (interquartile range 2-7 days). Patients who re-presented had worsening respiratory symptoms, a decrease in oxygen saturation (97% versus 90%) and an increase in C-reactive protein (26 versus 73 mg/L) and were older (72 vs 63 years) compared with those who did not return a second time. The 28-day mortality between early admission (at first presentation) and deferred admission (at second presentation) was not significantly different (29% versus 25%; P = 0.6). Older age, prior smoking history, higher clinical frailty score and self-reported shortness of breath at first presentation were identified as risk predictors of mortality when re-presenting after discharge at initial triage.ConclusionsThis study provides evidence that KRT patients with COVID-19 and mild illness can be managed effectively with supported outpatient care and with vigilance of respiratory symptoms, especially in those with risk factors for poor outcomes. Our findings support a risk-stratified clinical approach to admissions and discharges of KRT patients presenting with COVID-19 to aid clinical triage and optimize resource utilization during the ongoing pandemic.

Abstract

BackgroundCorrelation between antibody-mediated rejection (ABMR) and circulating HLA donor-specific antibodies (HLA-DSA) is strong but imperfect in kidney transplant (KT) recipients, raising the possibility of undetected HLA-DSA or non-HLA antibodies contributing to ABMR. Detailed evaluation of the degree of HLA matching together with the identification of non-HLA antibodies in KT may help to decipher the antibody involved.MethodsWe retrospectively assessed patients with transplant biopsies scored following Banff'15 classification. Pre- and post-transplant serum samples were checked for HLA and non-HLA antibodies [MICA-Ab, angiotensin-II type-1-receptor (AT1R)-Ab, endothelin-1 type-A-receptor (ETAR)-Ab and crossmatches with primary aortic endothelial cells (EC-XM)]. We also analyzed HLA epitope mismatches (HLA-EM) between donors and recipients to explore their role in ABMR histology (ABMRh) with and without HLA-DSA.ResultsOne-hundred eighteen patients with normal histology (n = 19), ABMRh (n = 52) or IFTA (n = 47) were studied. ABMRh patients were HLA-DSApos (n = 38, 73%) or HLA-DSAneg (n = 14, 27%). Pre-transplant HLA-DSA and AT1R-Ab were more frequent in ABMRh compared with IFTA and normal histology cases (p = 0.006 and 0.003), without differences in other non-HLA antibodies. Only three ABMRhDSAneg cases showed non-HLA antibodies. ABMRhDSAneg and ABMRhDSApos cases showed similar biopsy changes and graft-survival. Both total class II and DRB1 HLA-EM were associated with ABMRhDSApos but not with ABMRhDSAneg. Multivariate analysis showed that pre-transplant HLA-DSA (OR: 3.69 [1.31-10.37], p = 0.013) and AT1R-Ab (OR: 5.47 [1.78-16.76], p = 0.003) were independent predictors of ABMRhDSApos.ConclusionsIn conclusion, pre-transplant AT1R-Ab is frequently found in ABMRhDSApos patients. However, AT1R-Ab, MICA-Ab, ETAR-Ab or EC-XM+ are rarely found among ABMRhDSAneg patients. Pre-transplant AT1R-Ab may act synergistically with preformed or de novo HLA-DSA to produce ABMRhDSApos but not ABMRhDSAneg. HLA epitope mismatch associates with ABMRhDSApos compared with ABMRhDSAneg, suggesting factors other than HLA are responsible for the damage.

Abstract

Background In the general population with coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), obesity is associated with an increased risk of mortality. Given the typically observed obesity paradox among patients on kidney function replacement therapy (KFRT), especially dialysis patients, we examined the association of obesity with mortality among dialysis patients or living with a kidney transplant with COVID-19. Methods Data from the European Renal Association COVID-19 Database (ERACODA) were used. KFRT patients diagnosed with COVID-19 between 1 February 2020 and 31 January 2021 were included. The association of Quetelet's body mass index (BMI) (kg/m2), divided into: Results In 3160 patients on KFRT (mean age: 65 years, male: 61%), 99 patients were lean, 1151 normal weight (reference), 1160 overweight, 525 obese I and 225 obese II/III. During follow-up of 3 months, 28, 20, 21, 23 and 27% of patients died in these categories, respectively. In the fully adjusted model, the hazard ratios (HRs) for 3-month mortality were 1.65 [95% confidence interval (CI): 1.10, 2.47], 1 (ref.), 1.07 (95% CI: 0.89, 1.28), 1.17 (95% CI: 0.93, 1.46) and 1.71 (95% CI: 1.27, 2.30), respectively. Results were similar among dialysis patients (N = 2343) and among those living with a kidney transplant (N = 817) (Pinteraction = 0.99), but differed by sex (Pinteraction = 0.019). In males, the HRs for the association of aforementioned BMI categories with 3-month mortality were 2.07 (95% CI: 1.22, 3.52), 1 (ref.), 0.97 (95% CI: 0.78. 1.21), 0.99 (95% CI: 0.74, 1.33) and 1.22 (95% CI: 0.78, 1.91), respectively, and in females corresponding HRs were 1.34 (95% CI: 0.70, 2.57), 1 (ref.), 1.31 (95% CI: 0.94, 1.85), 1.54 (95% CI: 1.05, 2.26) and 2.49 (95% CI: 1.62, 3.84), respectively. Conclusion In KFRT patients with COVID-19, on dialysis or a kidney transplant, obesity is associated with an increased risk of mortality at 3 months. This is in contrast to the obesity paradox generally observed in dialysis patients. Additional studies are required to corroborate the sex difference in the association of obesity with mortality.

Abstract

Background Immunoglobulin A nephropathy (IgAN) is the most frequent recurrent disease in kidney transplant recipients and its recurrence contributes to reducing graft survival. Several variables at the time of recurrence have been associated with a higher risk of graft loss. The presence of clinical or subclinical inflammation has been associated with a higher risk of kidney graft loss, but it is not precisely known how it influences the outcome of patients with recurrent IgAN. Methods We performed a multicentre retrospective study including kidney transplant recipients with biopsy-proven recurrence of IgAN in which Banff and Oxford classification scores were available. 'Tubulo-interstitial inflammation' (TII) was defined when 't' or 'i' were ≥2. The main endpoint was progression to chronic kidney disease (CKD) stage 5 or to death censored-graft loss (CKD5/DCGL). Results A total of 119 kidney transplant recipients with IgAN recurrence were included and 23 of them showed TII. Median follow-up was 102.9 months and 39 (32.8%) patients reached CKD5/DCGL. TII related to a higher risk of CKD5/DCGL (3 years 18.0% vs 45.3%, log-rank 7.588, P  = .006). After multivariate analysis, TII remained related to the risk of CKD5/DCGL (HR 2.344, 95% CI 1.119–4.910, P  = .024) independently of other histologic and clinical variables. Conclusions In kidney transplant recipients with IgAN recurrence, TII contributes to increasing the risk of CKD5/DCGL independently of previously well-known variables. We suggest adding TII along with the Oxford classification to the clinical variables to identify recurrent IgAN patients at increased risk of graft loss who might benefit from intensified immunosuppression or specific IgAN therapies.

Abstract

Background Physical Frailty Phenotype (PFP) is the most used frailty instrument among kidney transplant recipients, classifying patients as pre-frail if they have 1–2 criteria and as frail if they have ≥3. However, different definitions of robustness have been used among renal patients, including only those who have 0 criteria, or those with 0–1 criteria. Our aim was to determine the impact of one PFP criterion on transplant outcomes. Methods We undertook a retrospective study of 296 kidney transplant recipients who had been evaluated for frailty by PFP at the time of evaluating for transplantation. Results Only 30.4% of patients had 0 criteria, and an additional 42.9% showed one PFP criterion. As PFP score increased, a higher percentage of women and cerebrovascular disease were found. Recipients with 0–1 criteria had lower 1-year mortality after transplant than those with ≥2 (1.8% vs 10.1%), but this difference was already present when we only considered those who scored 0 (mortality 1.1%) and 1 (mortality 2.4%) separately. The multivariable analysis confirmed that one PFP criterion was associated to a higher risk of patient death after kidney transplantation [hazard ratio 3.52 (95% confidence interval 1.03–15.9)]. Conclusions Listed kidney transplant candidates frequently show only one PFP frailty criterion. This has an independent impact on patient survival after transplantation.

Abstract

Membranous nephropathy (MN) is a common cause of nephrotic syndrome after kidney transplantation (KT); however, scarce is known regarding post-KT thrombospondin type-1 domain-containing 7A (THSD7A)-positive MN. Herein, we report on a 72-year-old woman with end-stage kidney disease due to chronic interstitial nephritis (1996). In February 2020, she received a second deceased-donor KT, achieving optimal kidney function but presenting early post-KT proteinuria, reaching up to 1800mg/24h six months after transplantation, controlled with renin–angiotensin–aldosterone system (RAAS) blockade. In July 2021, a kidney allograft biopsy revealed features consistent with MN. Immunohistochemical stains showed diffuse and granular THSD7A and C4d deposition in glomerular capillary walls and negative PLA2R and IgG4 staining. No anti-THSD7A antibodies were detected in the serum. The pre-implantation biopsy showed no MN-associated lesions and negative THSD7A staining. Secondary triggers such as malignancy were discarded. The present report illustrates a THSD7A-positive MN in a KT recipient. Despite lacking native kidney biopsy and early presentation, a recurrent MN seemed unprovable due to documented native kidney disease and a long time span between native kidney disease and MN diagnosis. We, therefore, presumed primary de novo disease. Two years after KT, kidney function remains stable, and the patient has reached complete remission of proteinuria.

Abstract

BACKGROUND AND AIMS: Studies examining kidney failure patients with COVID-19 reported higher mortality in hemodialysis patients than in kidney transplant recipients. However, hemodialysis patients are often older and have more comorbidities. This study investigated the association of type of kidney replacement therapy with COVID-19 severity adjusting for differences in characteristics. METHOD: Data were retrieved from the European Renal Association COVID-19 Database (ERACODA), which includes kidney replacement therapy patients diagnosed with COVID-19 from all over Europe. We included all kidney transplant recipients and hemodialysis patients who presented between February 1st and December 1st 2020 and had complete information reason for COVID-19 screening and vital status at day 28. The diagnosis of COVID-19 was made based on a PCR of a nasal or pharyngeal swab specimens and/or COVID-19 compatible findings on a lung CT scan. The association of kidney transplantation or hemodialysis with 28-day mortality was examined using Cox proportional-hazards regression models adjusted for age, sex, frailty and comorbidities. Additionally, this association was investigated in the subsets of patients that were screened because of symptoms or have had routine screening. RESULTS: A total of 1,670 patients (496 functional kidney transplant recipients and 1,174 hemodialysis patients) were examined. 16.9% of kidney transplant recipients and 23.9% of hemodialysis patients died within 28 days of presentation. In an unadjusted model, the risk of 28-day mortality was 33% lower in kidney transplant recipients compared with hemodialysis patients (hazard ratio (HR): 0.67, 95% CI: 0.52, 0.85). However, in an age, sex and frailty adjusted model, the risk of 28-day mortality was 29% higher in kidney transplant recipients (HR=1.29, 95% CI: 1.00, 1.68), whereas in a fully adjusted model the risk was even 43% higher (HR=1.43, 95% CI: 1.06, 1.93). This association in patients who were screened because of symptoms (n=1,145) was similar (fully adjusted model HR=1.46, 95% CI: 1.05, 2.04). Results were similar when other endpoints were studied (e.g. risk for hospitalization, ICU admission or mortality beyond 28 days) as well as across subgroups. Only age was found to interact significantly, suggesting that the increased mortality risk associated with kidney transplantation was especially present in elderly subjects. CONCLUSION: In this study, kidney transplant recipients had a greater risk of a more severe course of COVID-19 compared with hemodialysis patients when adjusted for age, sex and comorbidities.

Abstract

In the general population with COVID-19, the male sex is an established risk factor for mortality, in part due to a more robust immune response to COVID-19 in women. Because patients on kidney function replacement therapy (KFRT) have an impaired immune response, especially kidney transplant recipients due to their use of immunosuppressants, we examined whether the male sex is still a risk factor for mortality among patients on KFRT with COVID-19. From the European Renal Association COVID-19 Database (ERACODA), we examined patients on KFRT with COVID-19 who presented between February 1st, 2020, and April 30th, 2021. 1204 kidney transplant recipients (male 62.0%, mean age 56.4 years) and 3206 dialysis patients (male 61.8%, mean age 67.7 years) were examined. Three-month mortality in kidney transplant recipients was 16.9% in males and 18.6% in females (p = 0.31) and in dialysis patients 27.1% in males and 21.9% in females (p = 0.001). The adjusted HR for the risk of 3-month mortality in males (vs females) was 0.89 (95% CI 65, 1.23, p = 0.49) in kidney transplant recipients and 1.33 (95% CI 1.13, 1.56, p = 0.001) in dialysis patients (pinteraction = 0.02). In a fully adjusted model, the aHR for the risk of 3-month mortality in kidney transplant recipients (vs. dialysis patients) was 1.39 (95% CI 1.02, 1.89, p = 0.04) in males and 2.04 (95% CI 1.40, 2.97, p interaction = 0.02). In patients on KFRT with COVID-19, the male sex is not a risk factor for mortality among kidney transplant recipients but remains a risk factor among dialysis patients. The use of immunosuppressants in kidney transplant recipients, among other factors, may have narrowed the difference in the immune response to COVID-19 between men and women, and therefore reduced the sex difference in COVID-19 mortality risk.

Abstract

BACKGROUND: Kidney transplant patients are at high risk for coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19)-related mortality. However, limited data are available on longer-term clinical, functional, and mental health outcomes in patients who survive COVID-19.METHODS: We analyzed data from adult kidney transplant patients in the European Renal Association COVID-19 Database who presented with COVID-19 between February 1, 2020, and January 31, 2021.RESULTS: We included 912 patients with a mean age of 56.7 (±13.7) y. 26.4% were not hospitalized, 57.5% were hospitalized without need for intensive care unit (ICU) admission, and 16.1% were hospitalized and admitted to the ICU. At 3 mo follow-up survival was 82.3% overall, and 98.8%, 84.2%, and 49.0%, respectively, in each group. At 3 mo follow-up biopsy-proven acute rejection, need for renal replacement therapy, and graft failure occurred in the overall group in 0.8%, 2.6%, and 1.8% respectively, and in 2.1%, 10.6%, and 10.6% of ICU-admitted patients, respectively. Of the surviving patients, 83.3% and 94.4% reached their pre-COVID-19 physician-reported functional and mental health status, respectively, within 3 mo. Of patients who had not yet reached their prior functional and mental health status, their treating physicians expected that 79.6% and 80.0%, respectively, still would do so within the coming year. ICU admission was independently associated with a low likelihood to reach prior functional and mental health status.CONCLUSIONS: In kidney transplant recipients alive at 3-mo follow-up, clinical, physician-reported functional, and mental health recovery was good for both nonhospitalized and hospitalized patients. Recovery was, however, less favorable for patients who had been admitted to the ICU.

Abstract

Introduction Membranoproliferative glomerulonephritis (MPGN) represents a histologic pattern of glomerular injury that may be due to several aetiologies. Few studies have comprehensively analysed the recurrence of MPGN according to the current classification system. Methods We collected a multicentre, retrospective cohort of 220 kidney graft recipients with biopsy-proven native kidney disease due to MPGN between 1981 and 2021 in 11 hospitals. Demographic, clinical and histologic parameters of prognostic interest were collected. The main outcomes were time to kidney failure, time to recurrence of MPGN and disease remission after recurrence. Results The study group included 34 complement-mediated and 186 immune complex–mediated MPGN. A total of 81 patients (37%) reached kidney failure in a median follow-up of 79 months. The main predictors of this event were the development of rejection episodes and disease recurrence. In all, 54 patients (25%) had a disease recurrence in a median of 16 months after kidney transplantation. The incidence of recurrence was higher in patients with dysproteinaemia (67%) and complement-mediated MPGN (62%). In the multivariable model, complement-mediated MPGN emerged as a predictor of recurrence. A total of 33 patients reached kidney failure after recurrence. The main determinants of no remission were early time to recurrence (<15 months), estimated glomerular filtration rate <30 mL/min/1.73 m2 and serum albumin <3.5 g/dL at the time of recurrence. Conclusions One-fourth of the patients with native kidney disease due to MPGN developed clinical recurrence in the allograft, especially in cases with complement-mediated disease or in those associated with dysproteinaemia. The kidney outcomes of disease recurrence with currently available therapies are heterogeneous and thus more effective and individualized therapies are needed. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Abstract

Background: The value of myeloperoxidase and proteinase 3 antibodies titers in the assessment of renal disease activity and flare prediction in patients with ANCA-associated-vasculitis (AAV) is not well-known. Methods: Retrospective study including 113 AVV patients with a renal biopsy-proven pauci-immune necrotizing glomerulonephritis from seven Spanish hospitals. The main inclusion criteria were assessment of MPO antibodies (MPOab) using multiplex flow immunoassay and PR3 antibodies (PR3ab) measurements using immunoassay chemiluminescence with an identical range of values for all participating centers. Results: Serum MPOab, 3 ± 1.2 months before relapse, was higher in patients who relapsed (19.2 ± 12.2 vs 3.2 ± 5.1 AI, p < 0.001). The discrimination value of MPOab 3 months before renal relapse had an AUC of 0.82 (95%CI 0.73-0.92; p < 0.001). ΔMPOab (change in antibodies titration 6 months before relapse) was higher in patients who relapsed [8.3 ± 12 vs 0.9 ± 3.1 AI, p = 0.001) (AI; antibody index unit). The discrimination value of ΔMPO had an AUC of 0.76 (95%CI 0.63-0.88; p < 0.001). The positive predictive value of renal relapse in PR3 patients is 100% and the negative predictive value of renal relapse in patients with PR3 positive titers is 57.1%. Serum PR3ab was higher in patients who relapsed 2.8 ± 1.4 months before relapse (58.6 ± 24.6 vs 2.0 ± 0.6 AI, p < 0.001). Conclusions: MPO antibody level monitorization using multiplex flow immunoassay and PR3 measurements using immunoassay chemiluminescence are useful and sensitive tools for the prediction of renal relapse in the follow-up of AAV patients with renal disease, and relevant surrogate markers of renal disease activity.

Abstract

Background: People with Kidney Transplantation require immunosuppressant treatments and this classifies them as a population at risk for virus and/or bacterial infections. The objective of the study was to describe the follow- up of transplanted people with suspected COVID19 infection. Methods: Descriptive, cross-sectional, observational study with prospective follow-up carried out between March and June 2020. Sociodemographic and clinical data were recorded for the assessment, control and followup of the cases. The results were expressed with means and standard deviation, median and interquartile range, or frequencies and percentages. The chi-square test was used to compare qualitative variables and the Student’s T test to compare quantitative variables with normal distribution. If they did not follow a normal distribution, the Mann Whitney U test was used. The level of statistical significance was established at p<0.05. Results: A total of 56 patients were included, with a mean of 62.73±13.01 years and a median of 39.5 [7.5; 93] months transplanted. 2.48±2.69 calls/patient were made during a period of 3.46±4.41 days. Virtual follow-up was performed with 100% (n=56) and 71.43% (n=40) required hospital admission at some point. 28.57% (n=16) of the people evaluated were managed at home. The PCR test was performed on 85.71% (n=48) of the study population, being positive in 48.21% (n=27). 29.62% (n=8) of the positive cases required invasive mechanical ventilation and 33.33% (n=9) died. The mortality rate in the study population is 4.17 times higher than that presented in the data from the registries in the general population. Conclusions: According to the mortality data, it is essential to maintain close contact with the main objective of referring the case to the hospital system at the slightest suspicion of complication. Remote monitoring is offered as a positive opportunity for the control of transplant recipients who require close monitoring by the nursing team., Fundamentos: Las personas con Trasplante Renal requieren tratamientos con inmunosupresores y esto los clasifica como población de riesgo para infecciones de virus y/o bacterias.

Se realizaron 2,48±2,69 llamadas/paciente durante un periodo de 3,46±4,41 días. Se realizó seguimiento virtual con el 100% (n=56) y el 71,43% (n=40) requirió ingreso hospitalario en algún momento. El 28,57% (n=16) de las personas valoradas se logró controlar en domicilio. Se realizó el test PCR al 85,71% (n=48) de la población estudiada, siendo positivo en el 48,21% (n=27). El 29,62% (n=8) de los casos positivos requirió de ventilación mecánica invasiva y el 33,33% (n=9) falleció. La tasa de mortalidad en la población estudiada es 4,17 veces superior a la presentada en los datos de los registros en población general. Conclusiones: Según el dato de mortalidad, se hace indispensable mantener el contacto estrecho con el objetivo principal de derivar el caso al sistema hospitalario a la menor sospecha de complicación.
