Immunosuppression as a Risk Factor for De Novo Angiotensin II Type Receptor Antibodies Development after Kidney Transplantation

(1) Background: Angiotensin II type I receptor antibodies (AT1R-Ab) represent a topic of interest in kidney transplantation (KT). Data regarding the risk factors associated with de novo AT1R-Ab development are lacking. Our goal was to identify the incidence of de novo AT1R-Ab at 1 year after KT and...
