- The study aims to assess the impact of a living donor kidney transplant program on the functional outcomes of kidney grafts in Spain, comparing results from living donors and different cohorts of deceased donors.
- The sample included over 1,300 kidney transplant patients, categorized into groups based on whether their transplants were from living or deceased donors, and when the transplant occurred relative to the implementation of the living donor program.
- Key findings indicate that patients receiving transplants from deceased donors after the living donor program showed higher BMI and longer ischemia times, while pretransplant urinary tract infections were more prevalent in the deceased donor group prior to the program.
