The reference group for diabetes mellitus and/or hypertension is all other kidney diseases (glomerulonephritis, cystic, other, and unknown). The reference group for gender is male. DD, deceased donor; LD, living donor; OR, odds ratio; PRA, panel reactive antibodies; RIT, rituximab; DM, diabetes mellitus; HTN, hypertension; CI, confidence interval.
