Comparative Incidence and Outcomes of COVID-19 in Kidney or Kidney-Pancreas Transplant Recipients Versus Kidney or Kidney-Pancreas Waitlisted Patients: A Pilot Study 2020-07-25 .txt text/plain 3660 243 42 In this retrospective cohort pilot study, we determined the incidence and outcomes of COVID-19 in kidney or kidney-pancreas transplant recipients and kidney or kidney-pancreas waitlisted patients in our center. We hypothesize that these patients have an incidence proportion of COVID-19 similar to the general population, but that transplanted patients have greater occurrences of hospitalization, intensive care unit admission, mechanical ventilation and death compared to waitlisted patients due to chronic immunosuppression. Demographic data, vital signs (temperature and body mass index), laboratory results, hospitalization, intensive care unit admission, mechanical ventilation, and death were captured from the electronic datasets, whereas comorbidities, organ type, cause of renal disease, induction and maintenance immunosuppression, presenting symptoms for COVID-19, oxygen supplementation, chest radiographic findings, and treatments tried for COVID-19 were collected by manual chart review. . https://doi.org/10.1101/2020.07.20.20157990 doi: medRxiv preprint Previous epidemiologic studies on COVID-19 in kidney transplant recipients focused on assembling cohorts of patients diagnosed with COVID-19 and describing their clinical features and outcomes. ./cache/cord-254382-xy8se56o.txt ./txt/cord-254382-xy8se56o.txt
