Population-Based Modeling of Prototypes and Determinants of Allograft Function Trajectories after Kidney Transplantation: Implications for Patient Monitoring and Risk Stratification
Paris Transplant Group, Paris, France.
Background:Although the current gold standard of monitoring kidney allograft patients relies primarily on GFR assessment, little is known about long-term eGFR trajectories prototypes and their…2018 American Transplant Congress
The Effect of Perioperative Antiplatelet/Anticoagulant Therapy on the Incidence of Early Postoperative Thromboembolic Complications and Bleeding in Kidney Transplantation – A Dual Center Retrospective Cohort Study of 2000 Kidney Transplant Recipients
Thromboembolic complications (TECs) are dreaded complications after kidney transplantation (KTx). Consequences are severe and can result in delayed graft function or even graft loss. Perioperative…2018 American Transplant Congress
