- Title
A(nother) plea for better management of post-transplant cardiovascular morbidity.
- Authors
Ehrle, Haley; Goebel, Jens
- Abstract
An editorial underscores the need to address cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk in pediatric kidney transplant recipients, particularly focusing on dyslipidemia, even in cases where patients are not on steroids. It highlights the potential dietary risk factors contributing to dyslipidemia, such as liberalized sodium intake and increased post-transplant appetite. It advocates for improved identification, characterization, and management of CVD morbidity in this population.
