Findings indicate that the video education materials will meet the needs of adult learners and mitigate the limitations of the existing education programs by increasing interest and motivation and may contribute to increased treatment adherence and ultimately, positively effect self-care for new transplant patients.

The incidence of malignancy in transplant recipients is known to be higher than the same in the general population. However, the types of malignancies vary geographically, and the relative risks (RR) for malignancy in transplant recipients, compared with that of the general population, also differ country-by-country. In this study, we investigated the incidence and characteristics of malignancies after renal transplantation in a single center. A total of 2630 renal recipients who underwent surge

This study was conducted to determine the correlations between health literacy, transplant effects, and compliance to treatment in organ transplant recipients and to identify the factors influencing compliance to treatment. The participants (n = 130; males = 66.9%; mean age = 56.4 years) were organ transplant recipients visiting an organ transplantation center in Seoul, South Korea. The regression model explained 32% of the variance in participants’ compliance to treatment. Among the health lite

BACKGROUND: vascular endothelial growth factor receptor 2 (VEGFR-2) has an important role in colorectal cancer pathogenesis and progression. The aim of our study is to provide a protocol for assessing the efficacy and safety of ramucirumab (a monoclonal antibody VEGFR-2 antagonist) for the treatment of advanced colorectal cancer. METHODS: The systematic review will be reported according to the preferred reporting items for systematic reviews and meta-analyses protocols. Relevant randomized contr

Serum creatinine level at 1-month posttransplant is a strong independent predictor of graft survival and functional graft status beyond ten years posttransplant.
