Autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD), a common genetic cause of kidney failure, presents with a distinct vascular profile. However, the burden of abdominal arterial calcification in ADPKD remains inadequately characterized. Clarifying these differences may improve cardiovascular risk stratification and transplant timing.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>We conducted a retrospective cohort study of 4088 adult patients listed for kidney transplant at three Mayo Clinic sites (2005\u20132024). Patients were categorized by kidney failure cause: ADPKD vs. non-ADPKD. Abdominal arterial calcification was quantified on non-contrast computed tomography (CT) scans using a modified Agatston scoring method. Propensity score matching (1:1) adjusted for age, sex, race, lipid levels, left ventricular ejection fraction, dialysis exposure, coronary artery disease, neurovascular disease, and smoking history, was performed. Abdominal arterial calcification scores were compared between matched groups, and subgroup analyses evaluated abdominal arterial calcification severity across dialysis durations in ADPKD patients.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>After matching, 309 patients with ADPKD were compared with 309 non-ADPKD chronic kidney disease (CKD) controls. Abdominal arterial calcification scores were significantly lower in the ADPKD group (median: 425.3; IQR: 0.0\u20132033.5) than in the non-ADPKD group (median: 1256.8; IQR: 96.5\u20135033.8). Among ADPKD patients, abdominal arterial calcification scores increased with dialysis duration (P &amp;lt; .001).<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>ADPKD patients exhibit lower abdominal arterial calcification scores than their non-ADPKD counterparts after adjusting for clinical variables. Abdominal arterial calcification progression with dialysis highlights the importance of early transplant evaluation. This study introduces a novel adaptation of coronary calcium scoring software for quantifying abdominal calcification, offering a standardized approach to vascular risk assessment in kidney transplant
