The impact of pancreas transplantation on diabetic complications: A systematic review Open
SPK and PTA have beneficial effects in ameliorating or stabilising diabetes complications. Future work should seek to reduce heterogeneity of outcome metrics assessing T1DM complication profile to facilitate robust comparison of beta-cell …

1058 Jejunal or Ileal Exocrine Drainage in Pancreas Transplantation? Open
Aim Pancreas transplantation (PT) is performed for restoration of endocrine function in type 1 diabetes mellitus with amelioration of diabetic complications. However, PT can have serious complications requiring salvage pancreatectomy and s…

Unlocking the post-transplant microenvironment for successful islet function and survival Open
Islet transplantation (IT) offers the potential to restore euglycemia for patients with type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM). Despite improvements in islet isolation techniques and immunosuppressive regimes, outcomes remain suboptimal with UK f…

WTP2.11 Ipsilateral allograft placement in simultaneous pancreas and kidney transplantation provides equivalent outcomes to standard techniques Open
Aims In simultaneous pancreas kidney transplantation (SPK) grafts are conventionally implanted controlaterally (cSPK), with the pancreas allograft (PG) on right iliac fossa and kidney allograft (KG) on the left. Ipsilateral implant (iSPK) …

Kidney Transplantation From Donors With Acute Kidney Injury: Are the Concerns Justified? A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis Open
Renal transplantation improves quality of life and prolongs survival in patients with end-stage kidney disease, although challenges exist due to the paucity of suitable donor organs. This has been addressed by expanding the donor pool to i…

Kidney Transplantation From Hepatitis-C Viraemic Donors:Considerations for Practice in the United Kingdom Open
Background: Donor hepatitis-C (HCV) infection has historically represented a barrier to kidney transplantation (KT). However, direct-acting antiviral (DAA) medications have revolutionised treatment of chronic HCV infection. Recent American…

Peri‐transplant glycaemic control as a predictor of pancreas transplant survival Open
Aims The relationship between peri‐transplant glycaemic control and outcomes following pancreas transplantation is unknown. We aimed to relate peri‐transplant glycaemic control to pancreas graft survival and to develop a framework for defi…

Donor insulin use predicts beta‐cell function after islet transplantation Open
Insulin is routinely used to manage hyperglycaemia in organ donors and during the peri‐transplant period in islet transplant recipients. However, it is unknown whether donor insulin use (DIU) predicts beta‐cell dysfunction after islet tran…

Major Adverse Cardiovascular Events Following Simultaneous Pancreas and Kidney Transplantation in the United Kingdom Open
OBJECTIVE People with type 1 diabetes and kidney failure have an increased risk for major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE). Simultaneous pancreas and kidney transplantation (SPKT) improves survival, but the long-term risk for MACE is u…

Transposition of brachiobasilic arteriovenous fistulae: improving the cosmetic effect without compromising patency Open
Introduction Subjects who undergo haemodialysis are living longer, which necessitates increasingly complex procedures for formation of arteriovenous fistulas. Basilic veins provide valuable additional venous ‘real estate’ but surgical tran…
