    Angiotensin II Blockade and Fibroblast Growth Factor-23 in Stable Kidney Transplant Recipients.

    O. Sanchez, S. Reule, S. Li, D. Berglund, R. Spong, H. Ibrahim.

    U of MN, Mpls.

    Introduction: FGF-23 has been linked to allograft failure. However, careful serial profiling of FGF-23 has not been done. Therefore, we measured FGF-23 levels in recipients…

    Surveillance Renal Allograft Biopsies Prognosticate Graft Function.

    J. Thompson, D. Taber, P. Baliga, K. Chavin, T. Srinivas.

    MUSC, Charleston, SC.

    Background: Surveillance biopsy of the renal allograft provides a window into the health of the allograft and could allow prognostication of function by affording better…

    Differential Characteristics of Kidney Transplant Recipients According to 1-Year Chronic Kidney Disease Stage 3a and Stage 3b Graft Function.

    C. Baek,1 H. Kim,1 W. Yang,1 D. Han,2 S.-K. Park.1

    1Division of Nephrology, Department of Internal Medicine, Asan Medical Center, Seoul, Republic of Korea; 2Department of Surgery, Asan Medical Center, Seoul, Republic of Korea.

    Background: The outcomes of transplantation have been improved, but more than 50% of kidney transplantation recipients were still reported to have renal function of chronic…

    United States versus Australia: Is "Percentage Decline in Estimated Glomerular Filtration Rate" Truly a Surrogate Outcome in Graft Survival?

    K. Parker,2 A. Rice,1 A. Kirby,1 M. Pinion,1 K. Parker.2

    1Internal Medicine Division of Nephrology and Hypertension, East Carolina University, Greenville, NC; 2Internal Medicine, Vidant Medical Center, Greenville, NC.
