In context of increasing complexity and risk of deceased kidney donors and transplant recipients, the impact of center volume (CV) on the outcomes of high-risk kidney transplants(KT) has not been well determined.
We examined the association of CV and outcomes among 285 U.S. transplant centers from 2000-2016. High-risk KT were defined as recipient age ≥ 70 years, body mass index (BMI) ≥ 35 kg/m, receiving kidneys from donors with kidney donor profile index(KDPI) ≥ 85%, acute kidney injury(AKI), hepatitisC + . Average annual CV for the specific-high-risk KT categorized in tertiles. Death-Censored-Graft-Loss(DCGL) and death at 3 months, 1, 5, and 10 years were compared between CV tertiles using Cox-regression models.
Two hundred fifty thousand five hundred seventy-four KT were analyzed. Compared to high CV, recipients with BMI ≥ 35 kg/m had higher risk of DCGL in low CV(aHR = 1.11,95%CI = 1.03-1.19) at 10 years; recipients with age ≥ 70 years had higher risk of death in low CV(aHR = 1.07,95%CI = 1.01-14) at 10 years. There was no difference of DCGL or death in low CV for donors with KDPI ≥ 85%, hepatitisC + , or AKI.
Recipients of high-risk KT with BMI ≥ 35 kg/m have higher risk of DCGL and recipients age ≥ 70 years have higher risk of death in low CV, compared to high CV. Future studies should identify care practices associated with CV that support optimal outcomes after KT.
在供体死亡风险和受体风险增加的情况下,中心容量(CV)对高危肾脏移植(KT)结局的影响尚未得到很好的确定。
我们研究了 2000 年至 2016 年间 285 家美国移植中心的 CV 和结局之间的关联。高危 KT 定义为受体年龄≥70 岁、体重指数(BMI)≥35kg/m、接受 KDPI≥85%的供体肾脏、急性肾损伤(AKI)、丙型肝炎阳性。将特定高危 KT 按三分位数进行分类,计算其平均年 CV。使用 Cox 回归模型比较 CV 三分位数之间的死亡风险校正移植物丢失(DCGL)和 3 个月、1 年、5 年和 10 年的死亡率。
分析了 250574 例 KT。与高 CV 相比,BMI≥35kg/m 的受体在低 CV 中的 DCGL 风险更高(aHR=1.11,95%CI=1.03-1.19),10 年时;年龄≥70 岁的受体在低 CV 中死亡的风险更高(aHR=1.07,95%CI=1.01-14),10 年时。KDPI≥85%、丙型肝炎阳性或 AKI 的供体在低 CV 中,DCGL 或死亡无差异。
与高 CV 相比,BMI≥35kg/m 的高危 KT 受体的 DCGL 风险更高,年龄≥70 岁的受体在低 CV 中的死亡风险更高。未来的研究应确定与 CV 相关的护理实践,以支持 KT 后的最佳结果。
