BACKGROUND: @entity1 undergoing transplantation procedures are at a high risk of developing infections because of the need for immunosuppression. Infections presenting directly after renal transplantation greatly influence the overall success of the procedure. The aim of this study was to evaluate the influence of @entity86 on the length of survival after renal transplant. METHODS: In 2009 a multicenter prospective trial evaluating the factors that influence the occurrence of postoperative infective complications was published by the authors. That study reported that 25 out of 232 recipients of a renal transplant were diagnosed with an @entity281 . The present study shows the effect of @entity86 on the length of survival after renal transplantation during a 15-year observation period. Statistical methods involved monofactorial and multifactorial Kaplan-Meier analysis for the length of survival and the @entity797 proportional hazards model for mortality prediction. A P value of <.05 was considered to indicate statistical significance. RESULTS: The analysis demonstrated that the lifespan of renal transplant recipients was decreased in those with @entity86 , at both year 10 of the observation period (P = .013) and 15 years after transplantation (P = .012). Moreover, it was ascertained that an @entity281 in the postoperative period was an independent risk factor increasing the mortality after renal transplantation: P = .026; hazard ratio 2.90 (95% confidence interval, 1.13-7.41). CONCLUSIONS: The occurrence of an @entity281 in the postoperative period significantly decreases the lifespan of a renal transplantation recipient.
