Abstract Background and Aims Use of proton-pump inhibitors (PPIs) is common practice in renal transplant recipients (RTRs). Emerging data suggest several adverse effects of use of PPIs, including development of iron deficiency (ID). Although the latter has been shown with respect to PPIs, specific analyses for different types of PPIs and the associated risk of ID have not been performed. Method We used data from the TransplantLines Biobank and Cohort study, an ongoing prospective cohort study among all types of solid organ transplant recipients. For the current study, we used data from stable RTRs with a functional graft for more than 1 year post transplantation (n=795). We excluded RTRs who used any form of iron supplementation (n=54) and EPO-stimulating agents (n=24), resulting in 728 RTRs eligible for analyses. Use of PPIs was subdivided in different types of PPIs, i.e. omeprazole, esomeprazole, pantoprazole, and rabeprazole. ID was defined as TSAT<20% and ferritin <300 µg/L. Logistic regression analysis was used to assess the associations between PPIs and ID. Results We included 728 RTRs (age 56±13 years, 61% males), with a mean eGFR of 53±18 ml/min/1.73m2, a median [interquartile range] ferritin level of 96 (44 – 191) µg/L and mean TSAT of 24±10%. PPIs were used by 504 (69%) of the included RTRs, of which 398 (79%), 55 (11%), 49 (10%), and 2 (0.4%) respectively used omeprazole, pantoprazole, esomeprazole, and rabeprazole. Use of PPIs was strongly associated with ID (OR, 2.20; 95%CI 1.48 – 3.28; P<0.001), independent of adjustment for age, sex, BMI, eGFR, hs-CRP, smoking, alcohol use, use of calcineurine inhibitors, prednisolone, antiplatelet drugs, and antihypertensives. When subdividing the PPIs into the different types, both omeprazole (OR, 1.98; 95%CI 1.39 – 2.83; P<0.001) and esomeprazole (OR, 2.11; 95%CI 1.09 – 4.07; P=0.03) were independently associated with iron deficiency, whereas pantoprazole was not associated (OR, 0.89; 95%CI 0.47 – 1.70; P=0.73). Conclusion Omeprazole and esomeprazole, but not pantoprazole, are associated with an increased risk of ID. Our results are in line with previous reports that pantoprazole has the lowest potency with least increase in intragastric pH, thereby possibly interfering less with reduction of ferric to ferrous iron, and subsequently iron absorption. Future studies are warranted to confirm our present findings.

Abstract The evidence supporting an initial mycophenolate mofetil (MMF) dose of 2 g daily in tacrolimus-treated renal transplant recipients is limited. In a non-contemporaneous single-centre cohort study we compared the incidence of leukopaenia, rejection and graft dysfunction in patients initiated on MMF 1.5 g and 2 g daily. Baseline characteristics and tacrolimus trough levels were similar by MMF group. MMF doses became equivalent between groups by 12-months post-transplant, driven by dose reductions in the 2 g group. Leukopaenia occurred in 42.4% of patients by 12-months post-transplant. MMF 2 g was associated with a 1.80-fold increased risk of leukopaenia compared to 1.5 g. Rejection occurred in 44.8% of patients by 12-months post-transplantation. MMF 2 g was associated with half the risk of rejection relative to MMF 1.5 g. Over the first 7-years post-transplantation there was no difference in renal function between groups. Additionally, the development of leukopaenia or rejection did not result in reduced renal function at 7-years post-transplant. Leukopaenia was not associated with an increased incidence of serious infections or rejection. This study demonstrates the initial MMF dose has implications for the incidence of leukopaenia and rejection. Since neither dose produced superior long-term graft function, clinical equipoise remains regarding the optimal initial mycophenolate dose in tacrolimus-treated renal transplant recipients.

Objectives. Most of human papillomavirus (HPV) infections are “cleared” by the immune system; however, in cases of immune system suppression, infections could lead to development of malignancies. The aim of this study was to find out the frequency of HR-HPV infection in early period after renal transplantation in recipients receiving immunosuppressive therapy and to follow the progression of the infection up to one year. Methods. 43 female renal transplant recipients and 79 healthy female individuals as a control group were enrolled in this investigation. For the detection of HPV infection, patients’ samples (blood and vaginal swabs) were collected two weeks after transplantation with following collection of six months and one year. Different polymerase chain reactions for HR-HPV genomic sequences detection and ELISA kit for detection of anti-HPV IgG antibodies were used. Results. In this study, we show that frequency rate of HR-HPV infection has increased in the first year after transplantation from early stage of immunosuppressive therapy (from 24% to 36%). Also an increase of HR-HPV load was detected over time, showing the highest median viral load at sixth month after transplantation. Conclusions. From the obtained data, it follows that it is very important to carefully monitor patients receiving immunosuppression therapy on progression of HR-HPV.
