---|---|---|---|
Graft dislocation | <0.001 | ||
Yes (defined as total detachment or graft repositioning) | 45 (5%) | 1127 (546) | |

ECD = endothelial cell density; CIARC = Cornea Image Analysis Reading Center
Of 1330 study eyes, 913 had functioning grafts at 3 years with acceptable endothelial images
Model adjusted for CIARC-determined preoperative ECD, preservation time, diagnosis, donor history of diabetes, operative complications, and random surgeon and recipient effects.
