Journal ArticleDOI
Validation of a current definition of early allograft dysfunction in liver transplant recipients and analysis of risk factors
Kim M. Olthoff,Laura Kulik,Benjamin Samstein,Mary Kaminski,Michael Abecassis,Jean C. Emond,Abraham Shaked,Jason D. Christie +7 more
TL;DR: A simple definition of EAD using objective posttransplant criteria identified a 23% incidence, and was highly associated with graft loss and patient mortality, validating previously published criteria.
Journal ArticleDOI

Aaron,Demetra Tsapepas,Jean C. Emond,Elizabeth C. Verna +25 more
TL;DR: In this initial cohort, transplant recipients with COVID‐19 appear to have more severe outcomes, although testing limitations likely led to undercounting of mild/asymptomatic cases.
Journal ArticleDOI
Hypothermic Machine Preservation in Human Liver Transplantation: The First Clinical Series
James V. Guarrera,Scot D. Henry,Benjamin Samstein,R. Odeh‐Ramadan,M. Kinkhabwala,Michael J. Goldstein,Lloyd E. Ratner,John F. Renz,H. T. Lee,Robert S. Brown,Jean C. Emond +10 more
TL;DR: HMP of donor livers provided safe and reliable preservation in this pilot case‐controlled series and further multicenter HMP trials are now warranted.
Journal ArticleDOI
Survival outcomes following liver transplantation (SOFT) score: a novel method to predict patient survival following liver transplantation.
Abbas Rana,Mark A. Hardy,Karim J. Halazun,David C. Woodland,Lloyd E. Ratner,Benjamin Samstein,James V. Guarrera,Robert S. Brown,Jean C. Emond +8 more
TL;DR: It is critical to balance waitlist mortality against posttransplant mortality to ensure that patients on a waitlist do not die unnecessarily.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: In the kidney, Ngal-Luc2-mC imaging showed a sensitive, rapid, dose-dependent, reversible, and organ- and cell-specific relationship with tubular stress, which correlated with the level of urinary Ngal (uNgal), and specific cells of the distal nephron were the source of uNgal.
