Long-term islet graft survival in streptozotocin- and autoimmune-induced diabetes models by immunosuppressive and potential insulinotropic agent FTY720.

abstract：BACKGROUND:An artificial neural networks (ANNs) model was developed to predict 5-year graft survival of living-donor kidney transplants. Predictions from the validated ANNs were compared with Cox regression-based nomogram. METHODS:Out of 1900 patients with living-donor kidney transplant; 1581 patients were used for tr...
