The new body mass index system in predicting renal graft outcomes.

abstract：INTRODUCTION:Nowadays, renal allografts continue to be lost at the rate of 2% to 4% per year beyond the first year after transplantation due to chronic allograft injury. Excessive accumulation of extracellular matrix results from overproduction and/or defective degradation by proteolytic enzymes, among which metallopro...
