Statistical comparisons were performed using a paired t-test including only pairs with a valid SF-Index at the time points compared.

Tx0, last questionnaire before transplantation; Tx + 2, 2 months post-transplantation; Tx + 6, 6 months post-transplantation; Tx + 12, 12 months post-transplantation; Pre-emptive, patients not on dialysis at Tx0; On dialysis, patients on dialysis at Tx0.
