aDiabetes and diabetes nephropathy were tested i separate multivariable models. Diabetes was selected in the final model

bPre-emptive transplantation and time on dialysis/dialysis mode were tested in separate multivariable models. In the final model, pre-emptive transplantation was excluded

cDonor > 60 years and Donor age were tested in separate multivariable models. Only the continuous variable Donor age was included in the final model
