The clinical data and genotyping results are compatible with either interhuman transmission or an environmental source of infection. More complex models may account for PCP clusters.

In kidney transplantation, operational tolerance and almost tolerance are infrequent findings associated with excellent long-term death-censored graft survival.

In chronic dialysis patients the spatial QRS-T angle is a significant and independent predictor of all-cause and especially sudden cardiac death. It implies that this parameter can be used to identify high risk patients.

The ICD2 trial--a pilot study--will be the first study to evaluate the possible benefit of ICD therapy for the primary prevention of sudden cardiac death in dialysis patients.
