Summary

This study follows 600 adult liver transplant recipients in Denmark for up to 10 years to understand why many develop heart, lung, kidney, or metabolic problems after transplant. Researchers will use scans, blood tests, and lung function tests to find risk factors. The goal is to create better screening and treatment guidelines to help patients live longer, healthier lives.
