Outcomes at 7 years post‐transplant in black vs nonblack kidney transplant recipients administered belatacept or cyclosporine in BENEFIT and BENEFIT‐EXT
Abstract
Clinical outcomes are generally worse for black vs nonblack renal allograft recipients. In BENEFIT and BENEFIT‐EXT, recipients were randomized to belatacept more intense‐based, belatacept less intense‐based, or cyclosporine‐based immunosuppression. At year 7, belatacept was associated with superior graft survival vs cyclosporine in BENEFIT (recipients of living or standard criteria deceased donor kidneys); belatacept was associated with similar graft survival vs cyclosporine in BENEFIT‐EXT (recipients of extended criteria donor kidneys). In both studies, renal function was superior for belatacept‐treat...

Ambulatory blood pressure monitoring in living kidney donors: What changes in 10 years?
In this study, we investigated the long‐term changes in blood pressure in living kidney donors using ambulatory blood pressure monitoring and we explored the e‐GFR and albuminuria/proteinuria measurements at 3 time points. Twenty‐eight living kidney donors and 39 healthy individuals were evaluated and compared at the baseline and later at the 10th year. At the 10th year, creatinine levels were higher and eGFR levels were lower in the donors, whereas the systolic and diastolic measurements of the donors and controls and the prevalence of nondipping in the donors and controls were similar. Our study may be underpowered...
