Simple Evaluation of Engraftment by Secretory Unit of Islet Transplant Objects for Living Donor and Cadaveric Donor Fresh or Cultured Islet Transplantation

Evaluation of engraftment is important to assess the success of islet transplantation. Recently we developed secretory unit of islet transplant objects (SUITO) index for simple evaluation of engraftment. Assuming that normal subjects aged 26, which might reflect that 26% beta-cell mass was required...

Zusammenfassung:	Evaluation of engraftment is important to assess the success of islet transplantation. Recently we developed secretory unit of islet transplant objects (SUITO) index for simple evaluation of engraftment. Assuming that normal subjects aged 26, which might reflect that 26% beta-cell mass was required for insulin independence. SUITO index is useful to evaluate islet engraftment and to predict the possibility of insulin independence.
