TL;DR: Kidney donors are at increased long-term risk for ESRD, cardiovascular, and all-cause mortality compared with a control group of non-donors who would have been eligible for donation.

TL;DR: The finding of more frequent preeclampsia in pregnancies after kidney donation in the secondary analysis must be interpreted with caution, as the number of events was low, but no differences were observed in the occurrence of adverse pregnancy outcome in kidney donors and in the general population in unadjusted analysis.

TL;DR: Patients with an fPG between 5.3 and 6.7% in the early posttransplant period should undergo an OGTT for diagnostic verification of PTDM, according to accuracy of fPG and glycosylated hemoglobin.

TL;DR: The results support the continued use of older male and female living donors who meet carefully constructed medical criteria and who are highly motivated to donate and suggest donor age seems to be a more important predictor of graft loss than donor sex.

TL;DR: The incidence of patients starting RRT pmp secondary to DM in Europe was five times lower and the incidence of RRT due to other causes of ESRD was two times lower than the USA, when compared with the USA.
