identifies allograft dysfunction associated with alloantibodies. Sis et al. show that this
technique has a higher sensitivity but lower specificity than the current diagnostic criteria
using peritubular capillary C4d deposition, and that capillaritis is an independent predictor of
progression to graft failure.
