HR for mortality associated with PD compared with HD using various methods

Approach HR for PD Compared with HD
90 to 365 d
≥366 d
HR (95% CI) P HR (95% CI) P
Multivariate Cox model: Treatment at 90 d 0.80 (0.81 to 0.96) 0.004 1.32 (1.26 to 1.38) <0.001
Multivariate Cox model: Treatment modality as time-varying factor 0.82 (0.75 to 0.81) <0.001 1.29 (1.23 to 1.35) <0.001
Propensity score: Matched cohort 0.99 (0.89 to 1.10) 0.800 1.35 (1.27 to 1.42) <0.001
Weighted multivariate Cox model: inverse probability of treatment weight 0.93 (0.83 to 1.03) 0.180 1.31 (1.24 to 1.38) <0.001
