Brief Summary

Short-term (1-year) results of renal transplantation are now excellent (over 95%). Long-term (10-year and longer) results are, however, still disappointing. Where most research has focused on immunosuppression and infections, the investigators hypothesize that in renal transplant recipient, amongst others overweight, obesity, chronic use of immunosuppressive drugs and impaired renal function contribute to insulin resistance and chronic low-grade inflammation, which pose the renal transplant recipients at increased risk for cardiovascular disease, decline of function of the transplanted kidney and other complications, including post-transplant diabetes. This study is a biobank and cohort study which investigates this hypothesis.
