Objective: T cell-mediated rejection (TCMR) is a major concern following liver transplantation (LT), and identifying its predictors could help improve post-transplant prognosis. This study aimed to develop a model to predict the risk of TCMR in children and adults after LT.
Method: Pre-transplant demographic characteristics, intraoperative parameters, and especially early post-transplant laboratory data for 1,221 LT recipients (1,096 adults and 125 children) were obtained from Hospital, University, between 1 January 2015, and 1 January 2022.
