Torque Teno Virus as a Biomarker for Infection Risk in Kidney Transplant Recipients: A Machine Learning-Enabled Cohort Study
TTV viremia may serve as a biomarker for infection risk, particularly when used with other clinical variables. The identified TTV threshold of 5.16 log<sub>10</sub> cp/mL offers a practical tool for clinical decision-making, particularly when integrated with a machine learning model. Further studies with larger cohorts are needed to validate these findings and refine clinical applications.
