Article Synopsis
- This study examines kidney retransplantation (re-KT) outcomes specifically comparing HIV-positive (HIV+) and HIV-negative (HIV-) patients from 2014 to 2022.
- The research shows that HIV+ recipients face higher risks of graft loss due to factors like being more likely to be Black, experiencing delayed graft function, and having significant HLA mismatches.
- The findings indicate a need for better organ matching and strategies to improve re-KT success in HIV+ patients, as they exhibited significantly lower graft survival rates overall.
