Summary
This study looked at 300 kidney transplant recipients to see if a simple urine test could predict scarring in the new kidney. Researchers measured specific genes in urine cells during the first year after transplant. The goal was to find a non-invasive way to detect early damage, replacing the need for painful kidney biopsies.
