N=232; 23 rejection episodes, no missing variables.
Variables tested in the univariable model but not included in the multivariable model: CMV- positive donor, presence of HLA antibodies, donor gender, donor age, type of calcineurin inhibitor (tacrolimus versus CsA), any HLA-A or HLA-B mismatch, time on dialysis, cold ischemia time and delayed graft function.
