Hypertension and Kidney Function After Living Kidney Donation
Abstract
Importance: Recent guidelines call for better evidence on health outcomes after living kidney donation.
Objective: To determine the risk of hypertension in normotensive adults who donated a kidney compared with nondonors of similar baseline health. Their rates of estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) decline and risk of albuminuria were also compared.
