Summary

This research study is being done to measure bone health in living kidney donors and compare them to non-kidney donors to learn if living kidney donors have a higher risk of bone fractures (breaks) after kidney donation. Certain chemicals in the body that help maintain bone health were shown to have changed after kidney donation in living donors, whether or not these changes lead to a decrease in bone quality and increase the risk of fractures is not known.

The purpose of this study is to compare the bone health of living kidney donors, with the bone health of non-kidney donors. This information will be helpful in informing future kidney donors of the risks of donation and in creating treatments to help prevent these complications.
