The minimum remnant left liver volume (RLLV) requirement for donor right hepatectomy (DRH) varies in different programs of living donor liver transplantation. The present study aimed to determine how significant the RLLV is in the recovery of right liver donors.A total of 349 consecutive donors ...

Liver function tests including alanine aminotransferase, aspartate aminotransferase and bilirubin concentrations and prothrombin time were assessed postoperative days 1, 3, and 5 at outpatient follow-up, usually at week 3. There were no deaths; however, 26 complications occurred in 20 of 203 donors (...
The diaphragm is a unique skeletal muscle due to its continuous activation pattern during the act of breathing. The ontogeny of macrophages, pivotal cells for skeletal muscle maintenance and regeneration, is primarily based on two distinct origins: postn
Umbilical cord samples were collected from donors during full-term childbirth. Before parturition, puerperas tested negative for HIV, HBV, HCV, HCMV, EBV, HTLV, HPV, and human parvovirus B19. Umbilical cord samples were preserved in sterile saline at 4 °C after collection and transferred to ...
Depletion of αβ T cells from the graft prevents graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) and improves the outcome of hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) from haploidentical donors. Delayed recovery of adaptive immunity remains a problem, which can be approached by adoptive T-cell transfer. In...
For studying VZV-specific T cells in blood, a separate cohort of healthy donors was recruited at the Sanquin-National Blood Bank of The Netherlands (Amsterdam). After informed consent, leukapheresis was performed and subjects seropositive for anti-VZV IgG were HLA typed. PBMC were similarly ...
Although the live kidney transplantation program allows the selection of better donors – at least in demographics, ASA, and comorbidities – and the donors willingly undergo the surgery, they still have moderate to high anxiety levels. Perhaps donor nephrectomy surgery leads to the same levels of ...
