From: HLA-G14bp ins/del polymorphism and post-transplant weight gain in kidney transplantation: potential implications beyond tolerance

Fig. 5

Estimated marginal means of BMI and HLA-G14bp genotypes (recessive model), with gender and age at transplant as covariates; a total recipients: effect of HLA-G14bp ins/ins genotype (p = 0.029) and age at transplant (p = 0.001) on BMI (pre-transplant, 1 to 5 years after transplant), with no interaction between HLA-G14bp genotypes and BMI over time (BMI was significantly increased between pre- to post-transplant in both ins/ins and ins/del + del/del carriers); b when pre-transplant obese recipients were excluded from the analysis, a significant interaction between HLA-G14bp genotypes and BMI over time was found (p = 0.009)
