Pediatric transplantation in Europe during the COVID-19 pandemic: Early impact on activity and healthcare.

abstract：:As many as 50% of liver transplant patients suffer gastrointestinal (GI) disturbances post-transplant. Conversion from mycophenolate mofetil (MMF) to mycophenolate sodium (EC-MPS) alleviates GI symptom burden in renal transplant recipients. We employed a validated patient and physician-reported assessment to evaluate ...
