Accept or Decline? An Analytics-Based Decision Tool for Kidney Offer Evaluation.

abstract：:Advances in immunosuppression have reduced the incidence of acute graft loss after transplantation, but long-term allograft survival is still hindered by the development of chronic allograft injury, a multifactorial process that involves both immunologic and nonimmunologic components. Because these components become d...
