Does glutathione supplementation during cold ischemia confer early functional advantage in renal transplantation?
Despite recommendations by the manufacturer that UW solution be routinely supplemented with GSH, supplemental GSH does not influence early renal allograft function. Our data suggest that a far greater beneficial impact on early graft function is achieved by machine perfusion. We conclude that GSH supplementation of commercially available UW is not necessary.
Sucralfate cannot be recommended for prophylaxis of acute radiation proctopathy and may even worsen the symptoms.
