[HTML][HTML] Urinary chemokines CXCL9 and CXCL10 are noninvasive markers of renal allograft rejection and BK viral infection

Renal transplant recipients require periodic surveillance for immune-based complications
such as rejection and infection. Noninvasive monitoring methods are preferred, particularly
for children, for whom invasive testing is problematic. We performed a cross-sectional
analysis of adult and pediatric transplant recipients to determine whether a urine-based
chemokine assay could noninvasively identify patients with rejection among other common
clinical diagnoses. Urine was collected from 110 adults and 46 children with defined clinical …
