Association between gene polymorphisms of the components of the renin-angiotensin-aldosteron system, graft function, and the prevalence of hypertension, anemia, and erythrocytosis after kidney transplantation.

Abstract excerpt

INTRODUCTION: Genetic predisposition, including polymorphisms of the renin-angiotensin system (RAS) genes, are among the potential factors that may affect the occurrence of hypertension, anemia, or erythrocytosis as well as transplanted kidney function. However, the association of the RAS genes polymorphism and the kidney transplant outcomes is controversial. The aim of this study was to analyze the association...
