Association of Eplet Mismatch Load and Allograft Injury in Kidney Transplant Recipients
Key takeaways
This study looked at 657 people who received a kidney transplant. It checked how well the donor and recipient matched at a molecular level. The team found a link between a poor match and early damage to the new kidney. This shows a connection, but it does not prove that the match caused the damage.
