Abstract

Transplant-induced coronary artery disease is a leading cause of graft failure in cardiac allograft recipients after the first year of transplantation, but there presently is no test to identify patients at high risk for developing the disease. Our research is focused on development of a predictive test to identify patients at high risk of developing the disease.
