Definition of abbreviations: SAT index = subcutaneous adipose tissue area divided by height2, CI = confidence interval, OR = odds ratio.
Minimally Adjusted Characteristics are transfusion requirement, allograft ischemic time, pulmonary artery systolic pressure, intraoperative use of cardiopulmonary bypass or extracorporeal membrane oxygenation, center
Recipient Characteristics are diagnosis, gender, pulmonary artery systolic pressure, lung allocation score, center
Donor Characteristics are allograft ischemic time, donor smoking
Operative Characteristics are use of extracorporeal support, transplant type, intraoperative transfusions >1L packed red blood cells
