Cytokine Gene Polymorphisms and Risks of Acute Rejection and Delayed Graft Function after Kidney Transplantation
17 Nov 2004
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Pretransplantation identification of patients at an increased risk for adverse events would allow more individualized treatment strategies possibly improving long-term outcome. We studied cytokine gene polymorphisms of kidney allograft recipients and their donors to identify factors predisposing for acute rejection (AR) and delayed graft function (DGF). METHODS: A total of 291 adult cadaver kidney...
