Seven-day curves showing (A) AST (aspartate aminotransferase), (B) ALT (alanine aminotransferase), (C) total bilirubin and (D) INR (international normalized ratio) in recipients of grafts aged ≥65 years vs. recipients of grafts aged <65 years (n= 50 per group). AST and bilirubin levels in recipients of grafts from older donors were significantly elevated only at days 6 and 7 (P= 0.01, P= 0.01 and P= 0.002, P= 0.004, respectively). ALT and INR levels did not differ significantly between the two groups in the first 7 days. Error bars represent the standard error of the mean
