Relevance of Proteinuria in Kidney Transplant Recipients and Allograft Outcomes.

Background: The onset of proteinuria in renal allograft recipients is frequently associated with an increased risk for both graft failure and mortality. We investigated the risk associated with post-transplant proteinuria and its time-dynamics in a select group treated for biopsy proven antibody-mediated rejection (ABMR).

Methods: Eighty-five patients who underwent transplantation were enrolled in our study and followed up from transplantation until October 31, 2020, death, or the date of the return to dialysis.
