Stem cell therapy may help recondition lungs previously rejected for transplant

Posted: Published on June 1st, 2014

Nearly 1,650 people in the U.S. are awaiting lung transplants. Unfortunately, both domestically and abroad, the demand for donor lungs far outpaces the supply. The limited availability of donor lungs can lead to long delays before transplant, leaving patients to face a mortality rate of up to 40 percent while they wait. Most potentially transplantable lungs are rejected by surgical teams because of injury or dysfunction, such as pulmonary edema (fluid build-up in the lungs). In addition to rendering lungs unusable for transplant, pulmonary edema also signals that the lungs are not functioning properly post-transplant and is a major cause of illness and death among lung transplant recipients. Lungs that can clear fluid better are associated with better outcomes among recipients after transplantation. In this study, Danny F. McAuley, Gerard F. Curley, Umar I. Hamid, John G. Laffey, Jason Abbott, David H. McKenna, Xiaohui Fang, Michael A. Matthay, and Jae W. Lee looked at whether lungs that were rejected for transplantation because of edema could be "reconditioned" to qualify for transplant. They studied donor lungs that had been rejected for transplantation by the Northern California Transplant Donor Network and that were cleared for research use by the donors' families.

55,000 strokes and heart attacks could be prevented in 2022 with better blood pressure control

Posted: Published on June 1st, 2014

Study leader Emanuela Falaschetti from Imperial College London in the UK said: Although the rates of diagnosis, treatment, and control of raised blood pressure remain suboptimum in England, our findings are still a cause for optimism. Whereas once the rule of halves prevailedhalf the general population with high blood pressure were diagnosed, half of those detected treated, and half of those treated controllednow management in England is better than the rule of two-thirds. "As a result of these improvements in practice, several hundreds of thousands of major cardiovascular events might have been prevented. Richard McManus from the University of Oxford in the UK and Jonathan Mant from the University of Cambridge, wrote in the journal: Many public health initiatives aim to reduce the population burden of hypertension and along with physicians in primary carewho provide most hypertension management in the UKhave led to substantial advances in hypertension management and blood pressure control. "Falaschetti and colleagues study provides a welcome example of the combined effects of individual physicians and policy makers on a simple but important risk factor. After 50 years of treatment, it seems that the drugs are working." Around one in three people in England have high blood pressure, … Continue reading
