Neue Regeln beschlossen: Organspenden sollen erleichtert werden.

Der Deutscher Bundestag hat eine wichtige Reform im Bereich der Organspende verabschiedet. Ziel der neuen gesetzlichen Regelung ist es, die Zahl der Transplantationen in Deutschland deutlich zu erhöhen und Patienten schneller zu helfen.

Successful Islet Transplantation After Purification in Iodixanol-UWS • IPITA 1999 Sydney • @1MEMO 20260326

Our studies demonstrated the importance of selection of : 1) the non-toxic islet isolation media iodixanol and UWS , and 2) islets that survive culture, for successful transplantation.

Top 10 Paper

Our study — presented by our student researcher Josephine Rijkelijkhuizen —showing that cultured pig islets, isolated and purified in Iodixanol-UWS, can be transplanted without hyperacute rejection in cynomolgous monkeys , was selected in the top 10 outstanding studies at the memorable Sidney World Congress of the International Pancreas & Islet Transplant Association and the full paper included in a special issue of the journal Cell Transplantation .

New Powerful Tool For Human Islet Purification • OptiPrep-UWS ? • IPITA 1999 Sydney • @1MEMO 20260325

Poster (#P298) Michel van der Burg, 7th World Congress of the International Pancreas & Islet Transplant Association, Sydney (Australia) August 22–25, 1999 . 1MEMO_20260325_1 TakeNode 770715b8-ca68-4c00-8a24-24fe0d216c10

Outcome of the first series of human islet purifications with the novel Iodixanol -UWS density gradient — developed originally in the difficult model of pig islet isolation in our Leiden Islet Laboratory of the LUMC (2) — and, performed in 1998 during my working visit at the “fast track” center of the Diabetes Research Institute (Scientific director Prof. C. Ricordi, MD) of the University of Miami , in Miami, Florida, USA .

Notes

Abstracts of previous IPITA meetings had been published in print in scientific journals , however, at the turn of the millennium in 1999, with the rise of the internet , the 7th IPITA congress abstracts were published online only at the official website of the IPITA, in Oxford at the time (www.jr2.ox.ac.uk/ipita), and cannot be retrieved now.
I kept an archive with photocopies of our abstracts published in print in the Abstract Book of the 7th IPITA. Here that abstract of poster presentation P298 at page 169 in the Programme and Abstract Book.

Dialyse gilt in Deutschland juristisch als „gleichwertige Versorgung“ – selbst wenn Betroffene viele Jahre auf eine Nierentransplantation warten.

Ein Urteil des LSG Niedersachsen-Bremen macht das Dilemma sichtbar: Eine Krankenkasse muss die Kosten für eine früher mögliche Transplantation in den Niederlanden nicht erstatten – weil Dialyse hierzulande als ausreichend gilt.
