The Association between Transplant Glomerulopathy and Graft Outcomes among Patients Undergoing Kidney Transplantation: Results of a Meta-Analysis
Transplant glomerulopathy (TG) can lead to irreversible kidney damage. TG is recognized as a surrogate marker for poor outcomes, including graft failure and loss among…2018 American Transplant Congress
The Combination of Area under Curve of Estimated Glomerular Filtration Rate for 2 Years and Annual Rate Change of Estimated Glomerular Filtration Rate Predicts Long-Term Graft Survival in Kidney Transplants
Improvement of short-term outcomes in kidney transplant (KT) has required clinical trials to evaluate long-term hard outcomes for validation of new therapies. However, because of…2018 American Transplant Congress
Multiparametric MRI for Assessment of Renal Transplant Fibrosis: A Pilot
