Selection and Interpretation of Molecular Diagnostics in Heart Transplantation
Circulation. 2023 Aug 22;148(8):679-694. doi: 10.1161/CIRCULATIONAHA.123.062847. Epub 2023 Aug 21.ABSTRACTThe number of heart transplants performed annually in the United States and worldwide continues to increase, but there has been little change in graft longevity and patient survival over the past 2 decades. The reference standard for diagnosis of acute cellular and antibody-mediated rejection includes histologic and immunofluorescence evaluation of endomyocardial biopsy samples, despite invasiveness and high interrater variability for grading histologic rejection. Circulating biomarkers and molecular diagnostics have s...
