To parse the “living component” for increased kidney survival a new categorical variable with 7 values was created (Table 5). With 0-mismatched full sibling transplants as a reference the magnitudes of the HRs in a full Cox multivariate regression allowed us to estimate a reduction of approximately 34% in the risk of kidney failure for living donations with more than 1 mismatch. This is illustrated by the higher green bars for the deceased donor strata. See text for details.
