3.	Infection 06/01/2010 - "Although there has been excellent 1-year graft and patient survival, low rejection rates can be achieved with modern immunosuppression after pediatric renal transplantation, and patient survival is improved substantially in comparison with dialysis, pediatric renal transplant recipients experience a high prevalence of infections, malignancies, medication side effects, nonadherence, and, most importantly, cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. " 01/01/2001 - "Despite improvement in graft survival, infection continues to be an important cause of morbidity and mortality after kidney transplantation. " 07/01/2014 - "Despite the great efficacy of current antiviral preventive strategies, hCMV infection is still a major complication after renal transplantation, significantly challenging patient and graft survival. " 04/01/2013 - "Good outcomes after renal transplantation are dependent on effective immunosuppression while minimizing infection.

" 01/01/2014 - "Renal transplantation is surely the best treatment for Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) patients in both developed and developing countries. "
5.	Hypertension (High Blood Pressure) 07/31/2001 - "Successful kidney/pancreas transplantation results in a marked improvement in hypertension treatment that is not observed in patients undergoing isolated kidney transplantation. " 01/01/2015 - "Based on the findings, the incidence of post-transplantation hypertension is high, and kidney transplantation does not lead to remission of hypertension. " 02/01/1989 - "Unilateral native nephrectomy carried out at the time of renal transplantation is effective in the treatment of dialysis-resistant hypertension." 10/01/2014 - "A Cox proportional hazards model demonstrated that male gender (hazard ratio [HR], 0.75; 95% CI, 0.62-0.92; P = .005), increased time on dialysis (HR for each year on dialysis, 0.79; 95% CI, 0.75-0.83; P < .001), kidney transplantation history (HR, 0.62; 95% CI, 0.43-0.88; P = .008), and diagnosis of hypertension (HR, 0.60; 95% CI, 0.48-0.75; P < .001) were protective against mortality. " 02/01/2004 - "Taken together, ACE-I were effective and safe in the treatment of hypertension in children following renal transplantation. "
