Currently the process of analyzing these variables involves a careful study by the clinical transplant team. The number and complexity of the relations between variables make the manual process very slow. In this paper we propose and compare two Machine Learning algorithms that might help the ...

failure also is small and depends on such factors as obesity, high blood pressure, smoking and a family history of kidney disease. Risk calculators help doctors determine a potential donor's likelihood of later-in-life trouble, and transplant centers may have slightly different eligibility criteria...
However, many barriers prevent patients from receiving a transplant. Objectives To evaluate the effect of a multicomponent intervention designed to target several barriers that prevent eligible patients from completing key steps toward receiving a kidney transplant. Design, Setting, and Participants This ...
Physical activity and exercise3.1 We recommend that general physical activity should be encouraged in KTRs without contraindications [1B] 3.2 We suggest sufficient physical activity, pre- and post-transplant, can reduce all-cause and cardiovascular mortality [2C] 3.3 We recommend KTRs aim for...
Two reviewers (LYX and HYZ) independently screened all the titles and abstracts to identify potentially relevant studies, followed by full-text screening to determine the final eligibility of the studies. Disagreements were resolved through discussion or by the decision of a third reviewer (XJY), ...
Kidney Donation JAMA Internal Medicine Original Investigation December 1, 2023 This randomized clinical trial evaluates the effect of implementing a novel multicomponent intervention designed to target several barriers that prevent eligible patients from completing key steps toward receiving a kidney transplant...
Globally over 3 million people with ESKF live on dialysis or with a kidney transplant [16]. The vast majority of these individuals (90%) live in high- or upper middle-income countries where most people who need these therapies can access them under UHC, and therefore incidence and prevalence...
