Journal ArticleDOI
Characteristics associated with liver graft failure: the concept of a donor risk index.
Sandy Feng,Nathan P. Goodrich,Jennifer L. Bragg-Gresham,Dawn M. Dykstra,J. D. Punch,M. A. DebRoy,S. M. Greenstein,Robert M. Merion +7 more
TL;DR: A quantitative donor risk index was developed using national data from 1998 to 2002 to assess the risk of donor liver graft failure using seven donor characteristics that independently predicted significantly increased risk of graft failure.
Journal ArticleDOI
Evaluation for liver transplantation in adults: 2013 practice guideline by the American Association for the Study of Liver Diseases and the American Society of Transplantation
TL;DR: The purpose of the current Guidelines is to provide an evidence-based set of recommendations for the evaluation of adult patients who are potentially candidates for LT, and they are intended to be flexible, in contrast to standards of care, which are inflexible policies to be followed in every case.
Journal ArticleDOI
Expanded criteria donors for kidney transplantation.
Robert A. Metzger,Francis L. Delmonico,Sandy Feng,Friedrich K. Port,James J. Wynn,Robert M. Merion +5 more
TL;DR: A large number of patients with prior organ transplants are likely to have had at least one prior organ transplant, and the results suggest that the number of previous transplants may have an important role in determining the prognosis.
Journal ArticleDOI
HIV-1 tat trans-activation requires the loop sequence within tar
Sandy Feng,Eric C. Holland +1 more
TL;DR: The results of nucleotide substitution experiments are presented which suggest that tat trans-activation requires presentation of the sequence +30CUGGG+34 in tar within the loop of a RNA hairpin structure.
Journal ArticleDOI
