Background Doppler ultrasonography can evaluate vascular and renal parenchymal disorders. In this study, color Doppler patterns in transplanted kidneys were compared with histological diagnosis to develop diagnostic models for transplanted kidney failure. Method 45 kidney transplant patients participated in this prospective study (16 suffered acute tubular necrosis (ATN), and 29 had transplant rejection). All patients had color-Doppler ultrasonography to measure kidney parameters and Doppler indices. Serum creatinine levels also assessed the transplanted kidney's function. Result Ultrasound showed a significant difference between the two groups in iliac and interlobar PSV. The ROC analysis showed a high diagnostic value of the iliac artery PSV, in distinguishing ATN from kidney transplant rejection. Serum creatinine level correlated directly with transplanted kidney volume, renal cortical thickness, and transplanted kidney length, and inversely with interlobar artery PSV and EDV. In graft rejection patients, the only significant inverse correlation was found between serum creatinine level and PSV of the iliac artery and EDV of the intrelobar artery. Discussion and conclusion The iliac artery PSV can differentiate between ATN and rejection after renal transplantation. Evaluation of renal metric parameters along with PSV and EDV of the interlobar artery (in patients with ATN) and iliac artery and interlobar artery (in transplant rejection) help determine renal dysfunction.

Lung transplantation has been advanced for nearly half a century around the globe, and it has been developed rapidly for over 20 years in China. The field of lung transplantation in China has been gradually integrated into the international community. The outbreak of novel coronavirus pneumonia (COVID-19) in 2020 brought big challenges, as well as diverted the worldwide attention to the development of lung transplantation in China, accelerating international communication and cooperation. With the steadily deepening of clinical and basic research on lung transplantation for severe cases of COVID-19, organ transplant physicians have deepened the understanding and thinking of the maintenance of donors, selection of elderly and pediatric candidates, and perioperative management of recipients, as the future perspective of lung transplantation in China. For interdisciplinary research related to lung transplantation, it is necessary to carry out multi-center clinical trials with qualified study design and constantly promote the theoretic and practical innovation.

Objective To explore the clinical evaluation effect of COVID-19 risk assessment scale on organ donation and procurement during the epidemic of novel coronavirus pneumonia, and to reduce the incidence of donor-derived infection and medical staff infection. Method From January 20 to February 29 in 2020, the organ procurement organization of the General Hospital of Southern Theater Command adopted the COVID-19 risk assessment scale in evaluating 8 cases of potential donors. The potential donors were classified into high risk level, low risk level and uncertain risk level by analyzing the risk levels of the donation hospitals, the clinical characteristics and the exposure history of the potential donors. The coordinators, organ evaluation and ward medical staff adopted essential protective measures. The infection of COVID-19 in the above mentioned staff was observed, and the graft function and the infection of COVID-19 in the corresponding recipients were observed. Result According to the COVID-19 risk assessment results, 1 of 8 potential donors was high risk level, 5 potential donors were low risk level and 2 potential donors were uncertain risk level. 6 donors (including 5 with low risk and 1 with uncertain risk) were evaluated and underwent organ procurement. 19 grafts including liver, kidney, pancreas and heart were harvested and successfully used for organ transplantation. During the observation period of 14 days, there was no suspected or confirmed infection of COVID-19 among all coordinators and medical staff. No graft dysfunction or acute rejection was observed during the follow-up period of 4 to 30 days. No recipient was suspected or conformed to be infected with COVID-19, and 6 of them were negative for COVID-19 nucleic acid testing after organ transplantation. Conclusion During the COVID-19 epidemic, it is safe to proceed with donor organ evaluation and procurement according to the result with the COVID-19 risk assessment scale. Low-risk donor organ donation should be carried out, uncertain risk donor organ donation should be carried out cautiously, and high-risk donors should not be donated.

Objective To explore the clinical features, diagnosis and prognosis of renal transplant recipients with NCP. Method The clinical data of 2 cases of kidney transplant recipients with NCP were retrospectively analyzed. Based onclinical manifestations, blood routine, inflammatory factors, cell immunity, chest CT andtherapeutic effects, the diagnosis and treatment of NCP in kidney transplant recipients (5th edition) were compared to that ofordinary NCP patients. Both recipients developed onset of low andmoderate fever, with no cough or fatigue at the initial stage. Blood routine indicated a normal range of leukocytes,buta significant decrease in lymphocyte counts, increased C-reactive protein (CRP) , and slightly higher procalcitonin (PCT) . The cellular immunity was extremely low, and the chest CT showed multiple patchy ground glass shadows in both lungs. Result After 1 week of onset, both patients had significant disease progression. The pathogenesis and imaging changes were highly similar tothatreported in ordinary NCP patients.Two patients were givensymptomatic supportive treatment by antiviral agents, stop uses ofimmunosuppression agents, small amount of hormone maintenance, intravenous drip of gamma globulin andrespiratory support toavoid secondary infections. At present, the condition of both patients is obviously improved, and renal function is stable. One of them has recovered and was discharged. Conclusion The clinical manifestations of NCP in renal transplant recipients were generally consistent with that of ordinary NCP patients. Although there is no established method for the treatment of NCP, it is effective by stopping uses of immunosuppressive agents, maintaining small and medium doses of hormones, actively restoring immunity, and providing respiratory support in a timely manner.

Objective To investigate the clinical experience of patients with novel coronavirus (2019-ncov) infection after kidney transplantation. Method Clinical data of two patients with 2019-nCoV infection after renal transplantationin Jan 2020 Renmin Hospital of Wuhan Universiyt were retrospectively analyzed.Case 1 was a 48-year-old male with CMV pneumonia secondary to 2019-nCoV infection at 4 months after transplantation. CT imaging showed multiple patchy ground-glass images of both lungs. Case 2 was a 59-year-old male, who was screened positive for 2019-nCoV nucleic acid due to fever at 9 days after renal transplantation and showed no clinical manifestations of pneumonia. After diagnosis, case 1 was transferred to a designated hospital for isolation. Treatment regimens: cefoperazone sulbactam sodium + linezolid to resist infection, gamma globulin to enhance immunity function, methylprednisolone to control inflammatory response, antiviral regimens including arbidol tablets + lopina-velitonavir tablets. Case 2 was treated with isolated treatment in a single room. The treatment plan included anti-infection (cefoperazone sulbactam sodium), enhancing immunity function (gamma globulin), antivirus therapy with arbidol and other symptomatic treatment. Result Follow up with 3 weeks, case 1 recovered with renal dysfunction, nucleic acid test with nasopharyngeal swabs turned negative, and pulmonary imaging improved. Case 2 showed no obvious clinical symptoms, and the nucleic acid test of nasopharyngeal swabs turned negative for 3 times. Conclusion Renal transplant recipients should receive fine protection to avoid exposure to high-risk environments. Diagnosis should be defined with combination of clinical manifestations, nucleic acid test and pulmonary imaging. At present, there are no antiviral drugs and symptomatic treatment is the main choice. Key words: 2019-nCov; NCP; Kidney transplant; Level III Protection

CT imaging showed multiple patchy ground-glass images of both lungs. Case 2 was a 59-year-old male, who was screened positive for 2019-nCoV nucleic acid due to fever at 9 days after renal transplantation and showed no clinical manifestations of pneumonia. After diagnosis, case 1 was transferred to a designated hospital for isolation. Treatment regimens: cefoperazone sulbactam sodium + linezolid to resist infection, gamma globulin to enhance immunity function, methylprednisolone to control inflammatory response, antiviral regimens including arbidol tablets + lopina-velitonavir tablets. Case 2 was treated with isolated treatment in a single room. The treatment plan included anti-infection (cefoperazone sulbactam sodium), enhancing immunity function (gamma globulin), antivirus therapy with arbidol and other symptomatic treatment. \u0000 \u0000 \u0000Result \u0000Follow up with 3 weeks, case 1 recovered with renal dysfunction, nucleic acid test with nasopharyngeal swabs turned negative, and pulmonary imaging improved.

Objective To explore the clinical efficacy of living donor liver transplantation (LDLT) for children with methylmalonic acidemia (MMA). Methods From November 2016 to April 2019, clinical data, perioperative outcomes, complications and mid-term follow-up data of 30 MMA children receiving LDLT were retrospectively analyzed. Results All recipients were vitamin B12-ineffective. There were 20 boys (66.7%) and 10 girls (33.3%) with a median age of 33(6-144) months at transplantation. And the median values of height and body weight were 87(61-137) cm and 11.0(7.0-29.0) kg respectively. The median graft-to-recipient weight ratio was 2.1% (1.0%-3.2%). All of them belonged to Child-Pugh class A. All donors were biological parents as a heterozygous carrier of pathogenic gene. Surgical complications occurred in 4 cases (13.3%), including hepatic artery thrombosis (n=1), biliary complications (n=1), hepatic vein complications (n=1) and intestinal perforation (n=1). The median follow-up period was 18(6-34) months. The posttransplant survival rates of patients and grafts were 100% and 96.3% respectively. No severe intolerable decompensated metabolic acidosis occurred after transplantation. Compared with pre-transplantation, the levels of propionylcarnitine and the ratios of propionylcarnitine to acetylcarnitine in blood and levels of methylmalonic acid and 3-hydroxypropionic acid in urine decreased markedly at 3 months post-transplantation. Conclusions LDLT using grafts from parental donors as a heterozygous carrier for MMA can significantly reduce the risks of decompensated metabolic acidosis and greatly improve the quality-of-life of children.

Objective To assess the impact of multiple sessions of transarterial chemoembolization (TACE) on tumor necrosis, tumor recurrence and survival in patients awaiting liver transplantation (LT). Methods From January 2003 to December 2012, retrospective analysis was performed for 84 LT patients receiving TACE for HCC. The median follow-up period was 76(0-146) months. Results Among them, 9/84 LT patients (10.7%) developed recurrent HCC. Recurrence had a significant relationship with a short interval between the diagnosis of HCC and LT (<6 months) [P=0.029, odds ratio (OR)=19.2]. No significant relationship existed between tumor necrosis in explant and recurrence. The mean overall survival was 102.8 months (95% confidence interval 594.9-110.8 months) and the 1/3/5-year survival rates were 91.7%, 88.1% and 82.1% respectively. Waiting time <6 months, microvascular invasion and tumor characteristics were statistically associated with shorter survival. The session number of TACE was not associated with tumor necrosis or survival. Conclusions Multiple sessions of TACE are not associated with a higher risk of recurrence or shorter survival. A shorter waiting time before LT is correlated with an elevated risk of recurrence and lowered survival after LT for HCC.
