Urinary transforming growth factor-beta-induced gene-h3 (betaig-h3) as a sensitive predictor in chronic cyclosporine nephrotoxicity.

abstract：BACKGROUND:BK viremia and nephropathy are increasing problems in renal transplant recipients. The absence of a safe and effective antiviral therapy made screening-based prevention a recommended strategy. The prevalence of its reactivation among recipients of kidney transplants in the Middle East has not been well estab...

Before cyclosporine there were some good results, particularly in kidney grafting, but also a failure rate of 50% of grafts by 1 year. Cyclosporine changed the graft survival of 1 year to 80%, althou...
