Thymoglobulin vs. ATG-Fresenius as Induction Therapy in Kidney Transplantation: A Bayesian Network Meta-Analysis of Randomized Controlled Trials

Background: Thymoglobulin (THG) and antithymocyte globulin-Fresenius (ATG-F) have not been compared directly as induction therapies in kidney transplantation.Materials and Methods: We performed a Bayesian network meta-analysis to compare THG with ATG-F by pooling direct and indirect evidence.
