A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis of Posttransplant Anemia With Overall Mortality and Cardiovascular Outcomes Among Kidney Transplant Recipients.

Posttransplant anemia is a common finding after kidney transplantation. A previous meta-analysis reported an association between anemia and graft loss. However, data on cardiovascular outcomes have not yet been reported.

Risk factors and outcomes of post-transplant erythrocytosis among adult kidney transplant recipients: a systematic review and meta-analysis.

Post-transplant erythrocytosis (PTE) can occur in up to 10-16% after kidney transplant (KT). However, the post-transplant outcomes of recipients with PTE in the literature were conflicting. We performed systematic review and meta-analysis of published studies to evaluate risk factors of PTE as well as outcomes of recipients who developed PTE compared with controls.
