Book Description
Lung transplantation is a therapeutic option for patients with end-stage lung disease; depending on the underlying lung disease, patients receive either a single lung transplant or a bilateral lung transplant (Levine, 2008). The International Society for Heart and Lung Transplantation (ISHLT) reports that >22,000 lung transplant procedures have been performed worldwide (Orens et al., 2006). Further, the ISHLT reports the 1-year, 3-year, 5-year, and 10-year survival rates as 78%, 62%, 50%, and 26%, respectively. Obesity, defined as a body mass index (BMI) exceeding 30 kg/m2, is recognized by ISHLT as a relative contraindication to lung transplantation. Studies outlined in the literature review of this paper elucidate the relationship between BMI and the outcome and survival statistics for lung transplantation. Temple University Hospital's Lung Transplant Program has recognized this contraindication and requires that all patients listed for lung transplant have a BMI less than 30 kg/m2. Currently, lung transplant candidates found to be obese receive weight loss education in an unregimented manner from staff Registered Dietitians. There are many obstacles to successful weight loss for this particular patient population. Despite the known need and urgency for weight loss in this special population, few studies exist which examine the effectiveness of weight loss counseling for obese lung transplant candidates. The purpose of this study was to develop, implement, and evaluate an educational weight loss program for obese patients with end stage lung disease undergoing lung transplant evaluation. Subjects for this study were asked to complete a pre-test and participate in two weight loss education sessions with the researcher, followed by completion of a post-test. A total of one subject received weight loss education and completed the pre-test and post-test for this study; the subject's total score improved from pre-test (70%) to post-test (90%). Although the results of this study do not equate to statistical significance, the improvement of score from pre-test to post-test was a positive one and can generally be taken as an indication that nutrition counseling is effective at improving knowledge. To what degree the nutrition counseling is effective cannot be determined based on the results of this study alone; however, there is an implication for further research. Given the plethora of literature that examines the relationship between pretransplant BMI as it relates to survival outcomes, the need for effective weight loss counseling for this population is imperative. Specifically, the most optimal weight loss counseling for this population should be identified to maximize weight loss results and thus minimize waiting time to active listing for lung transplantation.

Book Description
Transplantation is an acceptable treatment for end-stage lung and liver disease patients. In lung transplantation, long-term survival is limited due to Bronchiolitis Obliterans Syndrome (BOS) and in liver transplantation, Hepatitis C Virus (HCV) disease recurrence significantly impacts long-term survival. Treatment options are limited and often not successful. It is therefore important to conduct research on the factors contributing to the pathogenesis and disease severity of BOS and HCV to improve our understanding of the mechanisms and potentially reduce morbidity and mortality. Several factors may play a role. The focus of this thesis is to assess the role of Oxidative Stress (OxS) and nutrition on these patient populations. BOS is a frequent complication of lung transplantation. OxS may contribute to its pathogenesis and induce further tissue injury and inflammation. OxS can be influenced by several factors including nutrition. The cross-sectional study showed that BOS lung recipients have elevated markers of OxS in their Bronchoalveolar Lavage Fluid (BALF) compared to those without BOS. However, there was no difference in nutritional factors potentially affecting OxS. HCV reinfection post transplant is universal, significantly increasing morbidity and mortality. OxS is involved in the pathogenesis of chronic HCV but its role in HCV disease recurrence is unknown. A first study determined whether HCV liver recipients (HCV-LT) were more oxidatively stressed when compared to controls or HCV non-transplant patients. A second study assessed OxS at six-and 12 months post transplant and compared results between those with and without recurrence. The results showed that HCV-LT were more oxidatively stressed, vitamin A intakes were significantly lower and plasma gamma-tocopherol was significantly higher in HCV-LT. Additionally, those with recurrence were more oxidatively stressed at six-months (before recurrence) and 12 months compared to those without recurrence. No differences were seen regarding nutrition parameters. These results suggest that OxS is present in transplant recipients but that nutritional factors do not play a significant role. Other causes of OxS likely play a more significant role such as the presence of inflammation due to immunological reactions associated with BOS and the generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS/RNS) seen in patients with HCV disease.
