TL;DR: In this paper, the authors conducted a longitudinal study of mortality in 228,552 patients who were receiving long-term dialysis for end-stage renal disease, and 46,164 were placed on a waiting list for transplantation, 23,275 of whom received a first cadaveric transplant between 1991 and 1997.

Levin,Edgar L. Milford,Daniel B. Ornt,Michael V. Rocco,Gerald Schulman,Steve J. Schwab,Brendan P. Teehan,Robert D. Toto +19 more
TL;DR: Patients undergoing hemodialysis thrice weekly appear to have no major benefit from a higher dialysis dose than that recommended by current U.S. guidelines or from the use of a high-flux membrane.
Journal ArticleDOI
T-cell recognition of an immunodominant myelin basic protein epitope in multiple sclerosis.
TL;DR: A higher frequency of T-cell lines reactive with a DR2-associated region of myelin basic protein between residues 84–102 in patients with multiple sclerosis compared with controls is reported, raising the possibility that this immunodominant region may be encephalitogenic in some DR2+ individuals.
Journal ArticleDOI
Use of Cytomegalovirus Immune Globulin to Prevent Cytomegalovirus Disease in Renal-Transplant Recipients
David R. Snydman,Barbara G. Werner,Beverly Heinze-Lacey,Victor P. Berardi,Nicholas L. Tilney,Robert L. Kirkman,Edgar L. Milford,Cho Si,Bush Hl,Andrew S. Levey +9 more
TL;DR: It is concluded that CMV immune globulin provides effective prophylaxis in renal-transplant recipients at risk for primary CMV disease and no effect is observed on rates of viral isolation or seroconversion.
Journal ArticleDOI

Gullans +22 more
TL;DR: A compendium of gene expression in normal human tissues suitable as a reference for defining basic organ systems biology is created and subsets of tissue-selective genes are identified that define key biological processes characterizing each organ.
