Abstract
Blood transfusions can influence the survival of organ allografts favorably, in spite of the danger of sensitization. We investigated the influence of HLA compatibility between blood donors and transfusion recipients on the production of HLA antibodies and on graft survival.This publication has 9 references indexed in Scilit:
