Obesity Predicts New-Onset Diabetes After Live Kidney Donation.
End-stage renal disease is uncommon in living kidney donors (LKD), but recent data suggest that most kidney failure developing late after donation is due to…2017 American Transplant Congress
Improving Value by Standardizing the Use of IVIG Amongst Pediatric Solid Organ Transplant (SOT) Patients.
Background: Given the high cost of pharmaceuticals (i.e. IVIG), we sought to determine if unnecessary variation in drug use may be an opportunity to improve…2017 American Transplant Congress
