Graft survival following living-donor renal transplantation: a comparison of tacrolimus and cyclosporine microemulsion with mycophenolate mofetil and steroids.

abstract：BACKGROUND:Isolated transient elevation of alkaline phosphatase (ALP) in the absence of bone or liver disease has been reported in children including liver transplant patients. Specific isoenzyme patterns have been associated with this phenomenon in healthy children but have not been reported after liver transplantatio...
