Abstract:

BACKGROUND: Diabetes mellitus is one of the main complications after kidney transplantation. Understanding risk factors for diabetes can improve the survival rate of patients undergoing kidney transplantation.

OBJECTIVE: To explore the high-risk factors for diabetes mellitus after kidney transplantation.
METHODS: A literature search was performed for relevant articles concerning risk factors for diabetes mellitus after kidney transplantation. Literatures that met the study criteria were selected for in-depth data analysis. Fasting blood glucose, 2-hour postprandial blood glucose, glycosylated hemoglobin, liver function, and valley concentration values of other immunosuppressants were measured in patients receiving kidney transplantation, based on which we analyzed whether the occurrence of diabetes mellitus after kidney transplantation is associated with sex, age, body mass index, family history of diabetes, diabetes onset time after kidney transplantation, liver function, and administration of immunosuppressive drugs and hormones.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: Patients with post-transplantation diabetes exhibited atypical symptoms of diabetes, early onset, islet dysfunction, and abnormal liver function. Age, body mass index, family history of diabetes, impaired glucose tolerance, abnormal liver function, and administration of immunosuppressive drugs are risk factors for diabetes after kidney transplantation, whereas there is no obvious association between gender and diabetes mellitus after kidney transplantation. Understanding risk factors for diabetes mellitus after kidney transplantation contributes to improving the survival rate of patients with renal transplantation.
