Abstract
Impairment of peripheral FMD was highly prevalent soon after HTx and was present in nearly 50% of patients at 1 year. Patients without peripheral ED at 1 month were associated with lower probability of CAV. Although more studies are needed, the evaluation of peripheral endothelial function at 1 month after HTx could be potentially useful to identify patients at lower risk of CAV.
