Arterial Stiffness and Calcifications in Incident Renal Transplant Recipients

The purpose of this study is to determine the: * Natural history of calcification posttransplantation * Natural history of BMC following renal transplantation * Reverse correlation between calcification score and aortic calcifications following renal transplantation * Correlation of IMT, BMC, PWV and biochemical variables * Correlation of IMT, BMC, PWV, biochemical variables and outcome * Predictors of CV disease after transplantation * Predictors of IMT progression, BMC loss and PWV progression after renal transplantation
