Article Synopsis
- The study investigated how changes in drug levels of tacrolimus and sirolimus affect outcomes for heart transplant recipients after starting sirolimus.
- A retrospective analysis categorized patients based on whether their combined drug levels decreased, stayed stable, or increased after sirolimus initiation, and compared their kidney function and heart performance.
- Results indicated that a decrease in drug levels correlated with better short-term kidney function, but this improvement didn’t last long term, and there were no significant differences in heart performance or other health risks across the groups after one year.
