Study presented by Dr. Patrick Gauthier at #ISHLT2025: Bulk transcriptomics lacks cell-type resolution, but digital cytometry deconvolution may bridge the gap. In >3,200 EMBs, CIBERSORTx identified distinct immune profiles with strong correlation with molecular rejection states.

Great talk by Dr. Yael Peled Yael Peled on immune checkpoint inhibitors in HTx recipients. Clear, practical take-home messages on balancing cancer treatment and rejection risk. 📌 Sharing a helpful scheme shown during the session. #ISHLT2025 #HeartTransplant #Immunotherapy

May Quilty be associated with rejection and worse prognosis? 579 EMB matched with MMDx:42 non-rejection EMB had Quilty lesions 💠 4×↑rejection MMDx | 7×↑TCMR 💠 ↓ Stress blood flow → microvascular dysfunction 💠 No differences in graft function Andrea Fernandez Valledor, MD #ISHLT2025

Is 1R/1A truly “non-significant”? 454 EMB matched with MMDx. 91 ISHTL ACR 1R/1A 💠1R/1A EMB showed higher dd-cfDNA and GEP scores 💠 4× higher rejection rates on MMDx, mainly ABMR (60%) Andrea Fernandez Valledor, MD #ISHLT2025

In the SHORE registry, 1 in 3 EMBs post-HTx were redundant, performed despite negative dual non-invasive testing (GEP + dd-cfDNA). 📉 Higher EMB rates did not translate into better 1-year survival or graft function. 🧠 Time to rethink simultaneous EMB? #ISHLT2025 Jeff Teuteberg

Dr. Katelynn Madill-Thomsen compares MMDx vs histology in >1,500 EMBs (INTERHEART + Trifecta-Heart): ⬆️ High discordance rate ⚖️ When MMDx and histology disagreed, DSA and dd-cfDNA aligned with MMDx 👉Histology may miss rejection, specially ABMR #ISHLT2025

👑 The king under fire? In the SHORE registry, patients with abnormal DNIT (GEP↑ + dd-cfDNA↑) but negative EMB had worse outcomes, primarily driven by graft dysfunction. 💣 Is it time to dethrone EMB as the gold standard? #ISHLT2025 Nir Uriel, MD MSc

In failing Fontan patients with cirrhosis, OHT alone may be enough. In a 24-patient cohort, those with biopsy- or imaging-confirmed cirrhosis had excellent outcomes: ✅ 100% 1,3 and 5 year survival in patients with biopsy-confirmed cirrhosis. #ISHLT2025

Are we all being too picky when it comes to increased LV wall thickness on donor hearts? Perhaps yes. Dr Christian O’Donnell Stanford Medicine presents intriguing insights on how we might refine the process.

Dr.Veli Topkara presents a new renal risk score predicting AKI requiring dialysis after heart transplant. Derived from >15,000 UNOS patients (2018–2024) 🔺High-risk (score >6) → 24% dialysis, ↓ 5-yr graft survival 💡 May help to better individualize risks. #ISHLT2025

Dr. P. Ramirez analyzes outcomes of simultaneous (SHK) vs sequential (KAH) heart-kidney transplant using #UNOS data (1988–2023) 🔹SHK patients had higher risk profiles 🔹KAH showed better survival across all after score-matched analysis Prospective studies are needed #ISHLT2025

❤️ Una mare i un fill. Dues esperes. Dos cors nous. Dues noves vides plenes d’esperança. La Isabel i en Lucas comparteixen molt més que una connexió familiar: comparteixen una mateixa malaltia cardíaca. I tots dos van rebre el regal més gran: un trasplantament de cor a l’HUB.
