Exercise and Prediabetes After Renal Transplantation (EXPRED-I): A Prospective Study.

Background: Post-transplant diabetes mellitus (PTDM) beyond 12 months (late PTDM) is a severe complication after renal transplantation. Late PTDM develops mostly in subjects with prediabetes. Although exercise may have a potential role in preventing late PTDM, there are no previous data on the effect of exercise in patients with prediabetes.

Pretransplant evaluation and the risk of glucose metabolic alterations after renal transplantation: a prospective study.

Background: Post-transplant prediabetes (PreDM) and diabetes (PTDM) are common and have an impact on cardiovascular events. We sought to investigate the pathogenesis and best approach for prediction.

Methods: We prospectively studied 115 waitlisted patients from a single center without manifest diabetes.

Exercise and Prediabetes after Renal Transplantation (EXPRED): Protocol Description.

The prevalence and incidence of PTDM have a bimodal evolution: early (up to 3 months) and late PTDM (beyond 12 months).
