Abstract

Chronic metabolic alterations such as post-transplant diabetes mellitus (PTDM), dyslipidaemias and overweight/obesity significantly impact on kidney transplant (KT) outcomes. This joint position statement is based on the evidence on the management of metabolic alterations in KT recipients (KTRs) published after the release of the 2009 KDIGO clinical practice guideline for the care of KTRs. Members of the Italian Society of Nephrology (SIN), the Italian Society for Organ Transplantation (SITO) and the Italian Diabetes Society (SID) selected to represent professionals involved in the management of KTRs undertook a systematic review of the published evidence for the management of PTDM, dyslipidaemias and obesity in this setting. The aim of this work is to provide an updated review of the evidence on the prevention, diagnosis and treatment of metabolic alterations in KTRs, in order to support physicians, patients and the Healthcare System in the decision-making process when choosing among the various available options.
