Model 1, unadjusted; Model 2, adjusted for age, sex, and body mass index; Model 3: adjusted for age, sex, body mass index, dialysis vintage, comorbid diabetes, and donor type; Model 4, adjusted for age, sex, body mass index, dialysis vintage, comorbid diabetes, donor type, neutrophil count, hemoglobin level, and platelet count.

HR, hazard ratio; CI, confidence interval; aHR, adjusted hazard ratio.
