Factors associated with sudden cardiac death in the multivariable Cox analysis with the competitive risk model

N = 885	HR (95% CI)	P value
Donor characteristics
Age (per 10-year increment)	1.44 (1.13; 1.83)	0.003
Recipient characteristics
Age (per 10-year increment)	0.71 (0.57; 0.87)	0.001
Non-Caucasian ethnicity	1.88 (1.05; 3.38)	0.034
Immunology
Pre-formed DSA	2.28 (1.22; 4.26)	0.009
Echocardiography parameters
Last LVEF (per 10% decrement)	1.32 (1.01; 1.69)	0.048

This table shows the clinical, immunological, functional and structural parameters associated with sudden cardiac death in the multivariable Cox analysis, with competitive risks taking into account all other known causes of death.

DSA, donor-specific antibodies; LVEF, left ventricular ejection fraction.
