Measurement of mycophenolate mofetil effect in transplant recipients.

abstract：BACKGROUND:A successful kidney transplant from a living-related donor (LRD) remains the most effective renal replacement therapy for children with end-stage renal failure. The use of LRD kidneys results in decreased time on dialysis, increased graft survival, and better function compared with kidneys transplanted from ...
