Summary
This study aims to find substances in blood or urine that can signal when a transplanted heart is being rejected. By analyzing samples from 188 heart transplant patients and healthy volunteers, researchers hope to develop a simple test for early detection. The goal is to catch rejection sooner and improve treatment, potentially preventing long-term damage.
