Fig. 2From: Long term metabolic and renal outcomes of kidney donors compared to controls with excellent kidney functionChange of estimated Glomerular Filtration Rate (eGFR) with time. a Mean eGFR in the donors’ and control groups. b Annual eGFR slope of donors’ and control groups. In the donors group, eGFR slopes during the second and third year post donation were positive (1.49 ± 0.79, 0.46 ± 0.48 ml/min/1.73m2), and significantly different from the slope in the following years post donation and from controls’ slope, which were negative and constant (p < 0.05)Back to article page
