Silent cardiac burden: Echocardiographic abnormalities and their predictors in kidney transplant candidates and their impact on graft function
Significant echocardiographic abnormalities persist in a potential transplant candidate despite cardiac clearance, although they don't affect future graft function. Understanding the risk factors associated with these abnormalities may help clinicians address these factors pre- and post-transplant to achieve better outcomes.
