Use of New 2021 CKD-EPI as an Endpoint in Transplant Trials May Significantly Influence Observations
1University of Cincinnati, Cincinnati, OH, 2CCHMC, Cincinnati, OH
*Purpose: GFR equations have recently been modified primarily to avoid disadvantaging black populations. The purpose of this study was to evaluate renal function and the…2022 American Transplant Congress
Impact of End-of-Chain Kidney Allocation on Access to Kidney Transplantation of Minority Patients: Implications for Reducing Disparities
*Purpose: Disparities in access to kidney transplantation (KT) among non-White patients is well-known, especially as it relates to living donor kidney transplantation (LDKT). We investigated…2022 American Transplant Congress
Exploring the Differential Access Hypothesis: Do Black Kidney Transplant Candidates Have Less Social Network Access to Potential Living Donors Than White Candidates?
