TL;DR: The purpose of the Executive Summary is to provide a "stand-alone" summary of the background, scope, methods, and key recommendations, as well as the complete text of the guideline statements.
Journal ArticleDOI
A comparison of tacrolimus (FK506) and cyclosporine for immunosuppression after cadaveric renal transplantation. FK506 Kidney Transplant Study Group
TL;DR: Tacrolimus is more effective than cyclosporine in preventing acute rejection in cadaveric renal allograft recipients, and significantly reduces the use of antilymphocyte antibody preparations.
Journal ArticleDOI
Risk factors for primary dysfunction after liver transplantation--a multivariate analysis.

TL;DR: Routine donor liver biopsies are recommended to decrease the rate of IPF and PNF, and the combination of risk factors shown to be significant for PDF should be avoided--and the only variable that can be controlled, the preservation time, should be kept as short as possible.
Journal ArticleDOI
A Prospective, Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled Multicenter Trial Comparing Early (7 Day) Corticosteroid Cessation Versus Long-Term, Low-Dose Corticosteroid Therapy
E. Steve Woodle,M. Roy First,John D. Pirsch,Fuad S. Shihab,A. Osama Gaber,Paul Van Veldhuisen +5 more
TL;DR: Early CSWD, compared with CCS, is associated with an increase in BCAR primarily because of mild, Banff 1A, steroid-sensitive rejection, yet provides similar long-term renal allograft survival and function.
Journal ArticleDOI
The predictive value of donor liver biopsies for the development of primary nonfunction after orthotopic liver transplantation.

TL;DR: It is suggested that donor liver biopsies demonstrating normal histology or minimal-to-moderate fatty infiltration function adequately, but that donor livers with severe fatty infiltration or hydropic degeneration function poorly and should not be transplanted.
