Table 5. Multivariate Cox Proportional Hazards Models for the Effect of Black Race on Graft Failure and Mortality With Adjustments for Clinical and Demographic Characteristics.
Black: White [HR (95% CI)] | P Value | |
---|---|---|
Models for graft failure | ||
Crude model: race/ethnicity alone | 2.62 (1.34-5.13) | 0.0048 |
Race/ethnicity adjusted for clinical/demographic factors: race/ethnicity+-age at transplant+graft type | 2.53 (1.29-4.96) | 0.0136 |
Fully adjusted model: race/ethnicity+age at transplant+graft type-+insurance type+NDI | 2.59 (1.29-5.45) | 0.0407 |
Models for mortality | ||
Crude model: race/ethnicity alone | 5.05 (2.00-12.73) | 0.0006 |
Race/ethnicity adjusted for clinical/demographic factors: race/ethnicity+-age at transplant+medical condition at wait listing | 4.84 (1.91-12.26) | 0.0043 |
Fully adjusted model: race/ethnicity+age at transplant+medical condition at wait listing+insurance type+NDI | 4.24 (1.54-11.69) | 0.0296 |
