Abstract

Background: Nonalcoholic Steatohepatitis(NASH) is one of the top three indications for liver transplantation in western countries. It is unknown whether renal dysfunction at the time of liver transplantation has any effect on post-liver transplantation outcomes in recipients with NASH.
Methods: From the United Network for Organ Sharing-Standard Transplant Analysis and Research(UNOS-STAR) dataset, we identified 4,088 NASH recipients who received deceased donor liver transplant. We divided our recipients a priori into three categories: Group I with estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR)
