Effects of steroid withdrawal on long-term renal allograft recipients with posttransplantation diabetes mellitus.

abstract：:We studied the role of hypoproteinemia, induced by a major burn injury, on the edema process in burned and nonburned tissues including the lung in the adult sheep. We used lymph flow (QL) and the lymph-plasma (L/P) protein ratio as indicators of the rate of fluid and protein flux across the microcirculation and into t...
