A comparison of discharge immunosuppressive drug regimens in primary cadaveric kidney transplantation.

abstract：:Over the last decade there have been major advances in all aspects of liver transplantation with the consequence that the number of patients who could benefit from the procedure is increasing. As a result, the number of patients listed for liver transplantation is growing while the donor pool is remaining constant or ...
