Objective Delayed graft function (DGF) and early graft loss of renal grafts are determined by the quality of the kidneys from the deceased donor. As “non-traditional” risk factors, serum biomarkers of donors, such as lipids and electrolytes, have drawn increasing attention due to their effects on th...
