Treatment of acute rejection (AR) following kidney transplantation has improved in recent
years, but there are still limitations to successful outcomes. This review article covers …

BACKGROUND: Acute rejection (AR) is a common medical problem among kidney
transplant recipients, which may cause a significant impact on patients' and allografts' …

Ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI) occurring after renal transplantation is a complex
biochemical process that can be monitored by specific biomarkers. The roles of those are …

While rates of acute rejection (AR) continue to decrease, it remains the strongest predictor of
