Abstrakt: Researchers at Hospital Virgen del Rocio in Seville, Spain have developed a predictive tool that can estimate kidney transplant survival at the time of transplantation. The tool takes into account various factors such as donor age, type of donation, panel reactive antibody percentage, previous transplants, recipient age, dialysis vintage, and sex. The researchers have also developed a mobile application based on this tool, which can guide decisions for organ allocation. The study provides valuable insights for nephrologists and may help improve outcomes for kidney transplant patients. [Extracted from the article]
