| Abstract | A cardiovascular disease event in a transplant recipient may be the result of a pretransplantation disease process, a direct effect of immunosuppressant medications, or the result of exposure to a variety of traditional and nontraditional risk factors after transplantation. Although the understanding of posttransplantation cardiovascular disease remains incomplete, there is evidence that the impact of posttransplantation cardiovascular disease has been decreased, through increased attention to this problem. In the absence of controlled studies to guide therapy, this review summarizes treatment of cardiovascular disease risk factors for which there is strong evidence of benefit in the nontransplantation setting, observational evidence of a similar risk in transplant recipients, and evidence that treatment can be safely administered to transplant recipients. Putative risk factors for posttransplantation cardiovascular disease for which the current level of evidence is insufficient to support specific treatment recommendations are also discussed. Potential new strategies to decrease the risk for cardiovascular disease events after transplantation in the future, including aggressive pretransplantation risk reduction, individualized treatments to prevent different types of cardiovascular disease, dedicated efforts to reduce cardiovascular disease events during transitions between dialysis and transplantation, and manipulation of immunosuppressant protocols, are also introduced. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
