Purpose of review: In an attempt to reduce waiting list mortality in liver transplantation, less-than-ideal quality donor livers from extended criteria donors are increasingly accepted. Predicting the outcome of these organs remains a challenge. Machine perfusion provides the unique possibility to assess donor liver viability pretransplantation and predict postreperfusion organ function.

Recent findings: Assessing liver viability during hypothermic machine perfusion remains challenging, as the liver is not metabolically active. Nevertheless, the levels of flavin mononucleotide, transaminases, lactate dehydrogenase, glucose and pH in the perfusate have proven to be predictors of liver viability. During normothermic machine perfusion, the liver is metabolically active and in addition to the perfusate levels of pH, transaminases, glucose and lactate, the production of bile is a crucial criterion for hepatocyte viability. Cholangiocyte viability can be determined by analyzing bile composition. The differences between perfusate and bile levels of pH, bicarbonate and glucose are good predictors of freedom from ischemic cholangiopathy.

Summary: Although consensus is lacking regarding precise cut-off values during machine perfusion, there is general consensus on the importance of evaluating both hepatocyte and cholangiocyte compartments. The challenge is to reach consensus for increased organ utilization, while at the same time pushing the boundaries by expanding the possibilities for viability testing.

审查目的:为了降低肝移植等待名单上的死亡率,越来越多的肝移植患者接受了来自扩展标准捐献者的质量不理想的捐献肝脏。预测这些器官的移植结果仍是一项挑战。机器灌注为移植前评估供体肝脏存活能力和预测再灌注后器官功能提供了独特的可能性:由于肝脏的新陈代谢并不活跃,因此在低体温机器灌注过程中评估肝脏存活能力仍具有挑战性。然而,灌注液中的黄素单核苷酸、转氨酶、乳酸脱氢酶、葡萄糖和pH值已被证明是预测肝脏存活能力的指标。在常温机器灌流期间,肝脏代谢活跃,除了灌流液中的 pH 值、转氨酶、葡萄糖和乳酸水平外,胆汁的生成也是肝细胞存活率的一个重要标准。胆管细胞活力可通过分析胆汁成分来确定。灌注液和胆汁中 pH 值、碳酸氢盐和葡萄糖水平之间的差异是预测缺血性胆管病变的良好指标。摘要:尽管在机器灌注过程中对精确的临界值缺乏共识,但对评估肝细胞和胆管细胞的重要性已达成普遍共识。我们面临的挑战是达成共识以提高器官利用率,同时通过扩大存活率测试的可能性来突破界限。

Purpose of review: The aim of the current review is to highlight the importance of exercise training as an important section of transplant recipient rehabilitation process and explain the role of the exercise scientist in the development, implementation, and assessment of the exercise regime.

Recent findings: Transplant patients face a unique set of challenges in their recovery and rehabilitation process, often requiring a multifaceted approach to address the physical, emotional, and psychological aspects of their condition. Exercise training has emerged as a crucial component in the care of these patients, providing a means to improve functional capacity, enhance quality of life, and mitigate the adverse effects of transplant-related complications. Exercise scientists who are trained to assess patient's physical limitations, develop and deliver personalized exercise programs, and monitor their progress are uniquely positioned to play a crucial role in the treatment of patients with chronic conditions that require exercise training as a mean of improving and maintaining health and quality of life.

Summary: Exercise scientists are the appropriate professionals for providing transplant recipients with the recommended exercise training for maintaining and improving their health status as part of the overall plan of long-term care and support.

综述目的:本综述旨在强调运动训练作为移植受者康复过程中一个重要环节的重要性,并解释运动科学家在运动制度的制定、实施和评估中的作用:移植患者在恢复和康复过程中面临着一系列独特的挑战,通常需要采取多方面的方法来解决其身体、情绪和心理方面的问题。运动训练已成为治疗这些病人的一个重要组成部分,它提供了一种改善功能、提高生活质量和减轻移植相关并发症不良影响的方法。运动科学家接受过评估患者身体限制、制定和实施个性化运动计划并监测其进展的培训,他们在治疗需要通过运动训练来改善和维持健康及生活质量的慢性病患者方面具有独特的优势,可以发挥至关重要的作用。摘要:运动科学家是为移植受者提供建议运动训练以维持和改善其健康状况的合适专业人员,这也是长期护理和支持总体计划的一部分。

Purpose of review: Normothermic regional perfusion (NRP) is a novel procurement technique for donation after circulatory death (DCD) in the United States. It was pioneered by cardiothoracic surgery programs and is now being applied to abdominal-only organ donors by abdominal transplant programs.

Recent findings: Liver and kidney transplantation from thoracoabdominal NRP (TA-NRP) donors in the United States was found to have lower rates of delayed kidney graft function and similar graft and patient survival versus recipients of cardiac super rapid recovery (SRR) DCD donors. The excellent outcomes with NRP have prompted the expansion of NRP technology to abdominal transplant programs.

Summary: Excellent early outcomes with liver and kidney transplantation have prompted the growth of NC-NRP procurement for abdominal-only DCD donors across the US, and now requires standardization of technical and nontechnical aspects of this procedure.

审查目的:在美国,常温区域灌注(NRP)是一种用于循环死亡(DCD)后捐献的新型采购技术。该技术由心胸外科项目首创,目前腹腔移植项目正将其应用于腹腔器官捐献者:最近的研究结果:在美国,与心脏超快速恢复(SRR)DCD 供体的受体相比,胸腹腔 NRP(TA-NRP)供体的肝脏和肾脏移植的肾脏移植功能延迟率较低,移植器官和患者存活率相似。摘要:肝脏和肾脏移植的早期疗效极佳,促使全美越来越多地为腹腔DCD供体进行NC-NRP采购,现在需要对这一手术的技术和非技术方面进行标准化。

Current challenges in xenotransplantation. 异种移植目前面临的挑战。
IF 2.2 4区 医学 Q3 TRANSPLANTATION Pub Date : 2024-06-01 Epub Date: 2024-04-16 DOI: 10.1097/MOT.0000000000001146

Purpose of review: In recent years, the xenotransplantation science has advanced tremendously, with significant strides in both preclinical and clinical research. This review intends to describe the latest cutting-edge progress in knowledge and methodologies developed to overcome potential obstacles that may preclude the translation and successful application of clinical xenotransplantation.

Recent findings: Preclinical studies have demonstrated that it is now possible to extend beyond two years survival of primate recipients of life saving xenografts. This has been accomplished thanks to the utilization of genetic engineering methodologies that have allowed the generation of specifically designed gene-edited pigs, a careful donor and recipient selection, and appropriate immunosuppressive strategies.In this light, the compassionate use of genetically modified pig hearts has been authorized in two human recipients and xenotransplants have also been achieved in human decedents. Although encouraging the preliminary results suggest that several challenges have yet to be fully addressed for a successful clinical translation of xenotransplantation. These challenges include immunologic, physiologic and biosafety aspects.

Summary: Recent progress has paved the way for the initial compassionate use of pig organs in humans and sets the scene for a wider application of clinical xenotransplantation.

综述目的:近年来,异种移植科学突飞猛进,在临床前和临床研究方面都取得了重大进展。本综述旨在介绍最新的前沿知识和方法进展,以克服可能阻碍异种移植转化和成功应用于临床的潜在障碍:临床前研究表明,现在有可能将拯救生命的异种移植的灵长类受体存活期延长到两年以上。有鉴于此,转基因猪心脏已被授权在两名人类受者身上同情性使用,异种移植也已在人类死者身上实现。尽管初步结果令人鼓舞,但异种移植要成功应用于临床,仍有一些难题需要全面解决。这些挑战包括免疫学、生理学和生物安全方面:最近的进展为猪器官在人类身上的初步同情使用铺平了道路,并为异种器官移植在临床上的更广泛应用创造了条件。

Squaring the Circle. Brain death and organ transplantation. 方圆。脑死亡与器官移植
IF 2.2 4区 医学 Q3 TRANSPLANTATION Pub Date : 2024-06-01 Epub Date: 2024-03-14 DOI: 10.1097/MOT.0000000000001104

Purpose of review: The adoption of brain death played a crucial role in the development of organ transplantation, but the concept has become increasingly controversial. This essay will explore the current state of the controversy and its implications for the field.

Recent developments: The brain death debate, long limited to the bioethics community, has in recent years burst into the public consciousness following several high-profile cases. This has culminated in the reevaluation of the Uniform Determination of Death Act (UDDA), which is in the process of being updated. Any change to the UDDA has the potential to significantly impact the availability of organs.

Summary: The current update to the UDDA introduces an element of uncertainty, one the brain death debate had not previously had.

回顾的目的:脑死亡概念的采用在器官移植的发展过程中起到了至关重要的作用,但这一概念的争议也越来越大。本文将探讨这一争议的现状及其对器官移植领域的影响:长期以来,脑死亡的争论仅限于生命伦理学界,近年来,随着几起备受瞩目的案例的发生,脑死亡的争论逐渐进入公众视野。这最终导致了对《统一死亡判定法》(UDDA)的重新评估,该法正在更新过程中。对《统一死亡判定法》的任何修改都有可能对器官的可用性产生重大影响。摘要:目前对《统一死亡判定法》的更新带来了不确定性因素,这是脑死亡辩论以前所没有的。

Normothermic machine perfusion for liver transplantation: current state and future directions. 肝移植的常温机器灌注:现状与未来方向。
IF 2.2 4区 医学 Q3 TRANSPLANTATION Pub Date : 2024-06-01 Epub Date: 2024-03-14 DOI: 10.1097/MOT.0000000000001141

Purpose of review: The number of patients on the liver transplant waitlist continues to grow and far exceeds the number of livers available for transplantation. Normothermic machine perfusion (NMP) allows for ex-vivo perfusion under physiologic conditions with the potential to significantly increase organ yield and expand the donor pool.

Recent findings: Several studies have found increased utilization of donation after cardiac death and extended criteria brain-dead donor livers with implementation of NMP, largely due to the ability to perform viability testing during machine perfusion. Recently, proposed viability criteria include lactate clearance, maintenance of perfusate pH more than 7.2, ALT less than 6000 u/l, evidence of glucose metabolism and bile production. Optimization of liver grafts during NMP is an active area of research and includes interventions for defatting steatotic livers, preventing ischemic cholangiopathy and rejection, and minimizing ischemia reperfusion injury.

Summary: NMP has resulted in increased organ utilization from marginal donors with acceptable outcomes. The added flexibility of prolonged organ storage times has the potential to improve time constraints and transplant logistics. Further research to determine ideal viability criteria and investigate ways to optimize marginal and otherwise nontransplantable liver grafts during NMP is warranted.

审查目的:肝移植等待名单上的患者人数不断增加,远远超过了可供移植的肝脏数量。常温机器灌注(NMP)允许在生理条件下进行体外灌注,有可能显著提高器官产量并扩大捐献者库:最近的研究结果:多项研究发现,随着 NMP 的实施,心脏死亡后捐献的利用率增加,脑死亡捐献者肝脏的标准也有所提高,这主要归功于在机器灌注过程中进行存活率测试的能力。最近提出的存活标准包括乳酸清除率、维持灌注液 pH 值大于 7.2、ALT 小于 6000 u/l、葡萄糖代谢和胆汁生成的证据。在 NMP 期间优化肝脏移植物是一个活跃的研究领域,包括对脂肪肝进行脱脂、预防缺血性胆管病变和排斥反应以及最大限度地减少缺血再灌注损伤等干预措施。延长器官储存时间增加了灵活性,有可能改善时间限制和移植物流。有必要进一步研究确定理想的存活标准,并探讨如何在NMP期间优化边缘和无法移植的肝脏移植物。

Normothermic regional perfusion procurement for abdominal organ donors: techniques and troubleshooting. 为腹部器官捐献者进行常温区域灌注采购:技术和故障排除。
IF 2.2 4区 医学 Q3 TRANSPLANTATION Pub Date : 2024-06-01 Epub Date: 2024-03-11 DOI: 10.1097/MOT.0000000000001140

Purpose of review: Normothermic regional perfusion (NRP) is a novel procurement technique for donation after circulatory death (DCD) in the United States. It was pioneered by cardiothoracic surgery programs and is now being applied to abdominal-only organ donors by abdominal transplant programs. Multiple technical approaches can be used for abdominal-only NRP DCD donors and this review describes these techniques.

Recent findings: NRP has been associated with higher utilization of organs, particularly liver and heart grafts, from DCD donors and with better recipient outcomes. There are lower rates of delayed graft function in kidney transplant recipients and lower rates of ischemic cholangiopathy in liver transplant recipients. These benefits are driving increased interest from abdominal transplant programs in using NRP for DCD procurements.

Summary: This paper describes the technical aspects of NRP DCD that allow for maximization of its use based on different donor and policy characteristics.

审查目的:在美国,常温区域灌注(NRP)是一种用于循环死亡(DCD)后捐献的新型采购技术。该技术由心胸外科项目首创,目前腹腔移植项目正将其应用于腹腔器官捐献者。多种技术方法可用于腹部 NRP DCD 供体,本综述介绍了这些技术:最近的研究结果:NRP 与更高的 DCD 供体器官(尤其是肝脏和心脏移植物)利用率和更好的受体预后有关。肾移植受者移植功能延迟率较低,肝移植受者缺血性胆管病变率较低。摘要:本文介绍了 NRP DCD 的技术方面,根据不同的捐献者和政策特点,最大限度地利用 NRP DCD。

Purpose of review: While liver transplant for unresectable colorectal cancer liver metastases (CRLM) has been demonstrated to be a promising treatment in selected patients, the typically low MELD score of these patients and lack of exception points may lead to challenges in receiving a deceased donor liver for transplant.

Recent findings: Several studies have shown improved outcomes in select patients with CRLM who undergo liver transplant, and several trials are ongoing and will conclude in the next several years. MELD exception points have recently been proposed in qualifying patients with CRLM to help this group obtain more timely quality allografts. Under the current proposal, patients with CRLM would receive a score of the median MELD at transplant (MMaT) for their center minus 20 with a minimum score of 15 in cases where MMaT minus 20 would be less than 15. This would allow them to receive transplants faster without competing unnecessarily with those with greater medical need.

Summary: Giving MELD exception points to patients with colorectal cancer liver metastases in need of transplant may decrease time on the waitlist and improve outcomes for these patients.

审查目的:虽然肝移植治疗无法切除的结直肠癌肝转移灶(CRLM)已被证明是一种很有前景的治疗方法,但这些患者的MELD评分通常较低,而且缺乏特例点,这可能会导致在接受死亡供体肝脏移植时遇到困难:多项研究表明,接受肝移植的部分 CRLM 患者的预后有所改善,目前正在进行的几项试验将在未来几年内结束。最近,有人建议对符合条件的 CRLM 患者采用 MELD 例外点,以帮助这类患者更及时地获得高质量的同种异体肝移植。根据目前的建议,CRLM 患者将获得其所在中心的移植时 MELD 中位数(MMaT)减去 20 的分数,如果 MMaT 减去 20 后小于 15,则最低分数为 15。摘要:为需要移植的结直肠癌肝转移患者提供 MELD 例外分数可缩短这些患者的等待时间并改善其预后。
