Optimal A1c Control in Post Liver or Combined Liver and Kidney Transplant Recipients Who Have Diabetes Mellitus

Major cardiovascular events are greatest in liver transplant recipients with sustained post-transplantation diabetes1. However, the optimal A1c target after transplantation has not been studied. The objective is to understand the optimal A1c target post liver and combined liver and kidney transplant. Strict A1c control will improve mortality and cardiovascular risk post liver and combined liver and kidney transplant and improve complications post liver and combined liver and kidney transplant.
