مستخلص: | Gender issues in clinical transplantation affect outcomes at many levels beyond immunologic concerns; for example, immunosuppressive drugs may influence hormone levels. Most immunosuppressive agents are categorized as "C" by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, meaning that risks can not be excluded. To optimize renal allograft survival is crucially important in Taiwan because of the limited resources to treat irreversible renal failure. This survey sought to investigate which gender undergoing renal transplantation required greater health care expenditures, using the records of a medical center in Southern Taiwan. We analyzed not only the number of female and male recipients, but also the health care costs. All of the recipients were categorized into 4 groups based on gender and age ( (Copyright (c) 2010 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.) |
