Papadimitriou,Parmjeet Randhawa,Heinz Regele,Karine Renaudin,Ian S.D. Roberts,Daniel Serón,Rex Neal Smith,Marialuisa Valente +31 more
TL;DR: Emerging research data led to the establishment of collaborative working groups addressing issues like isolated ‘v’ lesion and incorporation of omics‐technologies, paving the way for future combination of graft biopsy and molecular parameters within the Banff process.

TL;DR: The 8th Banff Conference on Allograft Pathology was held in Edmonton, Canada, 15–21 July 2005, and major outcomes included the elimination of the non‐specific term ‘chronic allograft nephropathy’ (CAN) and the recognition of the entity of chronic antibody‐mediated rejection.
Journal ArticleDOI
Complement activation in acute humoral renal allograft rejection: diagnostic significance of C4d deposits in peritubular capillaries.
A. B. Collins,Eveline E. Schneeberger,Manuel Pascual,Susan L. Saidman,Winfred W. Williams,Nina Tolkoff-Rubin,Cosimi Ab,Robert B. Colvin +7 more
TL;DR: C4d in peritubular capillary walls distinguishes AHR from ACR, is more specific and sensitive than traditional criteria, and is a potentially valuable adjunct in the diagnosis of graft dysfunction.
Journal ArticleDOI
Glomerulopathy Associated with Cytomegalovirus Viremia in Renal Allografts
W.P. Richardson,Robert B. Colvin,Sarah H. Cheeseman,Nina Tolkoff-Rubin,John T. Herrin,Cosimi Ab,A. B. Collins,Michelle S. Hirsch,Robert T. McCluskey,Paul S. Russell,Robert H. Rubin +10 more
TL;DR: Investigating the relation between cytomegalovirus (CMV) infection and renal-allograft dysfunction in 14 patients found two allografts recovered their function, both with cessation of high-dose immunosuppression and most of these patients did not have viremia.
Journal ArticleDOI
Glomerulopathy Associated With Cytomegalovirus Viremia in Renal Allografts
W.P. Richardson,Robert B. Colvin,Sarah H. Cheeseman,Nina Tolkoff-Rubin,John T. Herrin,Cosimi Ab,A. B. Collins,Michelle S. Hirsch,Robert T. McCluskey,Paul S. Russell,Robert H. Rubin +10 more
TL;DR: It is concluded that viremic CMV infection can cause acute glomerular injury and that recovery may be favored by a decreased in immunosuppressants.
