1. The numbers of CGN patients have decreased, with a corresponding increase in transplants into IDDM. HTN and MHT have also increased in recent years. 2. Waiting time on dialysis has increased, with an increase in patient age. 3. Transfusions have decreased for all diseases, although less so for SLE. 4. Disease recurrence was highest in FGS, IgA, SLE and CGN. The incidence of recurrence has decreased in recent years. 5. Tacrolimus-MMF and Neoral-MMF were superior to CsA-AZ for all diseases with respect to 5-year graft survival. 6. Systemic diseases such as SLE and IDDM had lower graft survival rates than IgA, PC and ALP. Exclusion of deaths made functional graft survival of all diseases quite similar. 7. Blacks had lower graft survival rates than Whites, Hispanics, and Asians for all diseases. 8. SPK had higher graft survivals than KA in Blacks and Whites. 9. PC patients with HLA-DR1 had a statistically significant higher graft survival than those without DR1 in Whites and Hispanics. 10. IDDM patients with HLA-DR4 had a statistically significantly higher graft survival rates than those without DR4 in Blacks, Whites, Hispanics, and Asians. 11. PC, IgA, and ALP patients had a lower incidence of rejection before discharge than other patients. HTN and IDDM patients had the highest rate of first day non-function and need for dialysis. 12. Need for dialysis and rejection before discharge led to 20 percentage points lower 5-year graft survival compared with those patients who were free of these complications. 13. First day anuria led to 10 percentage point lower 5-year graft survival compared with those with first day diuresis.

Haemolytic-uraemic syndrome (HUS) is a rare cause of insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus during the acute stage. We previously reported the case of a 3-year-old girl having presented with typical HUS with diarrhea, microangiopathic anaemia, thrombocytopenia and acute renal failure (17 days of anuria). Transient hyperglycaemia (highest level: 513 mg/dl) was observed, requiring continuous intravenous insulin infusion for 9 days. Subcutaneous insulin injections were stopped after 24 days. Oral glucose tolerance test performed 4 months after normalization of blood glucose was normal. HLA DQ genotype (DQA1-DQB1.AZH/DQA3-DQB3.1) was not at risk for type 1 diabetes and there were no auto-antibodies (ICA and IAA). The 3-years follow-up was marked by persistent arterial hypertension, proteinuria and slight renal insufficiency despite angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor treatment. Ten years after HUS occurred (the patient had been lost to follow-up for 7 years), she came back with complaints of headache but neither polyurodipsia nor weight loss. She was found to have arterial hypertension. Chronic renal impairment had moderately progressed with decreased glomerular filtration rate (63 ml/min/1.73 m2) and proteinuria (2 g/24 hours). Fasting blood glucose was 189 mg/dl and reached 315 mg/dl during an oral glucose tolerance test. HbA1c level was 8.2% (N<6.2%) and diabetes mellitus was diagnosed without any signs of autoimmunity (IAA, ICA, GADA and IA2B were negative). Good glycaemic control was obtained with 0.5 U/kg/day of insulin. In conclusion, transient beta-cell dysfunction complicating HUS acute stage may evolve to overt non-autoimmune diabetes mellitus (microangiopathic process?), even after a long free interval. This case emphasizes the need for a long-term follow-up of patients with HUS.
