	Post-transplant diuresis
Surgically altered urinary tract	Urinary tract infections
Graft arterial anastomosis	Peripheral vascular disease
Immunosuppression	Fluctuating glucose control
	Interaction with calcineurin inhibitors
	Urinary tract infections
Gastrointestinal upset	Intravascular volume depletion
