Abstract

New onset diabetes after transplantation (NODAT) is one of the most common and serious complications of solid organ transplantation. The incidence of NODAT is estimated to range from 2% to 53%. Patients who develop new onset diabetes after transplantation are significantly more frequently exposed to a higher risk of death and cardiovascular incidents as well as other adverse effects, such as decreased patient survival, higher infection rates and early graft loss. Identifying high-risk patients, undertaking preventive action and applying appropriate treatment can limit the development of new onset diabetes after transplantation and improve a patient’s long-term prognosis.
