Brief Summary
Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.
The main questions it aims to answer are:
* how many patients arrive at the transplant in a state of hypovitaminosis C?
* how does hypovitaminosis C affect the patient's oxidative status?
* how does hypovitaminosis C affect the length of stay in intensive care and post-transplant complications?
