09/01/2013 - "This review concluded that compared to ATG-F, Thymoglobulin possibly provides better protection against acute rejection and improves patient and graft survival but may result in more cytomegalovirus infection and post-transplant malignancy. "
06/01/2010 - "Therefore, in this study, we retrospectively compared the effect of two different rabbit ATG preparations [Thymoglobulin (ATG-G) and ATG-Fresenius (ATG-F)] on immune recovery and cytomegalovirus infection after transplantation. "
