Longitudinal Follow-up and Health-Related Outcomes in Liver Transplant Recipients and Living Donors

This prospective cohort study aims to identify risk factors for postoperative adverse events in liver transplant recipients and living donors. By collecting comprehensive clinical data and conducting systematic long-term follow-up, the researchers intend to establish a specialized, standardized, and individualized follow-up management system. The ultimate goal is to optimize intervention strategies and improve patient prognosis and quality of life for both recipients and donors.
