Abstract

Background. The onset of proteinuria in renal transplant recipients may be associated with an increased risk of allograft failure. Little is known about the relationships between factors influencing proteinuria and the Doppler ultrasound (DU) intrarenal resistive index (RI) and pulsatility index (PI) among donor recipients with proteinuria <1000 mg/24 h.
