Solid organ transplantation (SOT) is the preferred treatment option for patients with end-stage diseases [1]. The prognosis of these patients is influenced by many factors such as infection [2], allograft dysfunction [3] and metabolic disorders[4], and also by biological and social differences [5] between females and males, which play a pivotal role at all stages of the transplantation process.
