Over the long-term, graft survival may be impacted by factors such as declining adherence, which may be affected by complex dosing regimens and neurotoxicities. Studies show a direct correlation between rejection losses and nonadherence, which is also proven to increase over time. Review 2-year published data and see the results achieved at 2 years in de novo kidney transplant patients.

In adults with end‐stage liver disease concurrent changes in pro‐ and antihemostatic pathways result in a rebalanced hemostasis. Children though, have a developing hemostatic system, different disease etiologies and increased risk of thrombosis. This study aimed to assess the hemostatic state of children during and after liver transplantation.

The risk of cancer increases after transplantation. However, the consensus on immunosuppression adjustment after diagnosis of malignancy is lacking. Our study aims to assess the impact of IS adjustment on mortality of post-kidney transplant patients and allograft outcomes. We retrospectively reviewed the data in our center of 110 subjects.
