Figure 5

Urinary cell numbers in patients with graft deterioration and renal biopsy. Biopsies of patients with suspected graft rejection were analyzed histologically. Patients were subdivided into three groups according to the diagnosis. A separate group of graft patients with stable renal function not receiving a biopsy is also displayed. Hollow dots symbolize renal biopsies, which were excluded from calculation due to inadequate sample material but did show a suggestive result. *p < 0.05, **p < 0.01 ***p < 0.001 ****p < 0.0001. EPCAM, epithelial cell adhesion molecule; TCMR, T cell-mediated rejection; ABMR, antibody-mediated rejection; No RX, no rejection; Ctrl, control group.
