Cell-mediated cytotoxicity: a predictor of chronic rejection in pediatric HLA haploidentical renal transplants.

abstract：BACKGROUND:The effective use of new steroid-sparing immunosuppressive regimens may lower cumulative glucocorticoid use among renal transplant recipients. However, it is unknown what effect this therapeutic trend has had on bone disease. METHODS:Unselected newly transplanted inpatients (n=45) were identified and compre...
