Time-varying multivariable Cox proportional hazards for cumulative mortality in patients who received diabetic donor kidneys compared with the strategy of remaining on the waitlist or receiving a nondiabetic donor kidney (A) in the overall cohort, (B) divided by KDPI category, (C) when restricting to only patients willing to accept an ECD kidney, (D) when restricting to only patients who are always active on the waitlist, (E) when restricting to only patients who were waitlisted on or after 2004, (F) in candidates aged <40 years at the time of waitlisting, and (G) in candidates aged ≥40 years at the time of waitlisting

^aAll multivariable models were adjusted for candidate diabetes status, center median waitlist time tertile, three-way interaction between donor diabetes status, candidate diabetes status, and center median waitlist time tertile, in addition to candidate age, sex, waitlist year, race, ABO blood type, panel reactive antibody, and dialysis vintage.
