“…One year graft survival rates have also improved, from 23% in the early eras to >80% in 2007 onwards, most likely due to reduced technical complications, including graft thrombosis and reduction in immunologic graft loss. 7,42 In our study also, there was significant decrease in graft failure and thrombosis only during the study period between 43 This is contrary to our analysis, where none of these factors play a significant role except longer preservation time.…”

“…Examples of different definitions of pancreas graft failure based on these functional parameters include the reinstitution of any insulin therapy, C-peptide <0.4 ng/mL, the reinstitution of up to 50% of the total pre-pancreas transplant insulin requirement, or reinstitution of insulin at 0.5 units/kg/d (Table 1). [9][10][11][12][13][14] In addition to variable consideration of functional parameters, the duration of insulin use to distinguish temporary graft dysfunction from permanent graft failure was also controversial. The OPTN Pancreas Transplantation Committee performed a multicenter retrospective study to determine if undetectable C-peptide levels correspond to center-reported graft failures.…”

“…Our results found little difference between the two groups, which might have been due to the donor source for the SPK. The organs donated for SPK, which are usually from deceased donors, are more likely to have been exposed to longer ischemia times and other potential injuries compared to the organs of living donor transplants, and SKP have stricter criteria for donors than do kidney and other types of pancreas transplants [19]. Thus, it is possible that the stricter criteria for donors also excluded most injured organs, decreasing the risk for death related to cigarette smoking history.…”
