Global experience and perspective on anonymous nondirected live donation in living donor liver transplantation.

abstract：:Endothelial dysfunction is of vital importance, as it may cause ischemia and dysfunction in various organs. Despite, this problem has been well documented in patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD), there is not enough data considering this issue following renal transplantation. One of the potential causes of end...
