Development of a novel linear model for predicting recipient's post-transplant serum creatinine level after living donor kidney transplantation: A multicenter cross-validation study.

ABSTRACT:

Background

This study was designed to develop and cross-validate a statistical model for predicting post-transplant serum creatinine of living donor kidney transplantation.

Materials and methods

Adult recipients of living donor kidney transplantation from August 2012 to October 2017 at Samsung Medical Center (SMC) and Seoul National University Hospital (SNUH) with normal post-transplant protocol biopsy were included for modelling. Demographic data including recipient and donor's sex, age, body measurements and comorbidities, pre-transplant donor serum creatinine, graft weight, post-transplant recipient serum creatinine and the result of protocol biopsy were collected. Multivariate linear regression analysis was performed for developing the model based on SMC cohort. Internal
