Heart transplantation. The association of the hazard ratio at listing and the 5-tier score at listing with eventual posttransplant 1-year heart graft survival. The dashed lines are the pointwise 95% confidence intervals, and the dotted line is a hazard ratio of 1. The 5-tier score is the underlying continuous score used to categorize programs into the 5-tier system. The x-axis tick marks for the 5-tier score correspond to the cut-points used to categorize programs into tiers; e.g., programs with a 5-tier score above 0.875 were categorized as tier 5.
