Donor-recipient relationship and risk of ESKD in live kidney donors of varied racial groups.
Risk factors for kidney failure are the basis of live kidney donor candidate evaluation. In this retrospective cohort study, the investigators quantified risk for end-stage kidney disease (ESKD) by the biological relationship of the donor to the recipient, a risk factor that is not addressed by current clinical practice guidelines. The investigators found that marked differences in risk for ESKD across types of donor-recipient relationship were observed for Asian, black, and white donors.
