Using @RISK, they were able to expand upon the data they gathered from the 100 study participants and forecast patient outcomes based on donor kidney features. The analysis revealed that kidney size (volume) had the greatest influence on patient renal outcome one year after the transplant. @RISK Home Customers & Industries Universit
