| "Gingival hyperplasia was only weakly related to plaque and calculus but was unrelated to CsA dose (mg/kg/day), duration of CsA therapy (months), CsA blood or saliva levels (ng/ml), or the concurrent administration of a Nif or Dz." | 1.29 | Gingival hyperplasia in renal allograft recipients receiving cyclosporin-A and calcium antagonists.
