Liver transplantation using an organ donor with HELLP syndrome.

abstract：BACKGROUND:Gastrointestinal complications are common in patients who undergo kidney transplantation and may affect posttransplant outcomes. We examined the incidence and predictors of gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) and dyspepsia and their associations with graft survival and mortality after transplant. METHODS...
