Model 1: Adjusted for age, sex and race-ethnicity.

Model 2: Adjusted for age, sex, race-ethnicity, health insurance coverage (employer group insurance, Medicare, Medicaid, other insurance or no insurance), clinical factors [cardiovascular disease, chronic lung disease, diabetes, poor functional status (inability to walk, inability to transfer), body mass (Quetelet's) index, drug abuse, alcohol dependence or tobacco use], predialysis access measures [serum albumin concentration, hemoglobin level, nephrology care and prescribed erythropoiesis stimulating agent], zipcode poverty, zipcode linguistic isolation and OPTN/UNOS region.
