Abstract：
OBJECTIVE:The aim of this study was to determine the sociodemographic characteristics of people who applied to be kidney donors at an organ transplantation center. MATERIAL AND METHODS:A total of 728 participants in the kidney donor program were included in the study between 2015 and 2018 at Istanbul Yeniyüzyıl University Gaziosmanpaşa Hospital. The sociodemographic data of the participants were retrospectively analyzed through computer records, and data were analyzed. RESULTS:Two hundred thirty-nine men and 489 women were included into the study. Six hundred ten were live donors, and 118 were cadaveric donors. Of the donors included in the study, 24.9% were illiterate, 52.1% were primary school graduates, 17.3% were high school graduates, and 5.7% were university graduates. Of the living donors, 156 (25.5%) were spouses, 91 (14.9%) were mothers, 72 (11.9%) were siblings, 65 (10.5%) were fathers, 64 (10.7%) were children, 46 were (7.5%) were other relatives, and 116 (19.0%) were nonrelatives. CONCLUSIONS:In recent years, the number of live kidney transplantations has increased. Therefore, it is necessary to protect their well-being by using evidence-based donor evaluation and treatment strategies to prevent and treat negative consequences of donations.

In this high-risk group of patients where the expected disease rate would normally be at least 55% to 60% without prophylaxis, a combination protocol of GCV, ACV, and CMVIG limited the rate of disease to 19%. When disease occurred, it was generally mild and easi...
