Table 3. Adjusted Rate of DDKT and MIRR for Pediatric Kidney Transplant Candidates under KAS.

MIRR was larger than the IRR of 3-year increase in waiting time. This means for pediatric candidates, moving to a DSA with a higher transplant rate is associated with a median increase in the transplant rate that is higher than 3-year difference in waiting time.
