Figure 2

Stacked bars illustrate whether discussion about kidney transplantation occurred and the rated tone (encouraging, neutral, discouraging) among those discussions that did occur with categories of medical professionals (nephrologist, PMD, dialysis staff) and categories of social group members (significant other, family member, friend). P-values were calculated using ordered logistic regression.

Abbreviations: PMD = primary medical doctor, Sig. Other = significant other
