Cardiac Troponin T Risk Stratification Model Predicts All-Cause Mortality Following Kidney Transplant

The ACTV score, including an elevated cTnT, provided superior prediction compared to a scoring system without cTnT. Further studies to validate these findings are needed.Am J Nephrol 2018;48:242 –250
