new-onset diabetes after transplantation (nodat) is one of the frequent complications following kidney transplantation. patients were randomized to receive cyclosporine a- or tacrolimus-based immunosuppression. fasting and oral glucose tolerance tests were performed, and the patients were assigned to one of the following three groups based on the results: normal, impaired fasting glucose/impair...

background chronic renal failure is an important and common complication of diabetes mellitus; hence, renal transplantation is a frequent and the acceptable treatment in patients with diabetic nephropathy requiring renal replacement therapy. on the other hand, renal transplantation and its conventional treatment can lead to increased diabetes outbreak in normoglycemic recipients. also, uncontro...

The proportion of organ recipients with diabetes mellitus at the time of transplantation varies widely and depends on the primary disease necessitating transplantation (Table 1).1–5 For example, diabetes is the most common cause of renal failure requiring transplantation, whereas peripheral blood stem cell transplantation is usually performed in individuals with diseases unrelated to preexistin...

Tacrolimus is a main drug for induction and maintenance immunosuppression for patients with kidney transplants in many centers. One of important side effect of drug is post-transplant diabetes mellitus. Of course, diabetes ketoacidosis (DKA) is rare. In this report, a 12-year-old girl with DKA was presented after 45 days of kidney transplantation.

OBJECTIVE Our aim was to analyze the performance of two scores developed for predicting diabetes in nontransplant populations for identifying kidney transplant recipients with a higher new-onset diabetes mellitus after transplantation (NODAT) risk beyond the first year after transplantation. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS We analyzed 191 kidney transplants, which had at least 1-year follow-up po...
