Crude rates of outcomes, by year of peritoneal dialysis (PD) incidence. Annual cohorts of PD incident patients were followed up for up to 3 years for outcomes of transition to in-center hemodialysis (ICHD), death, and transplantation. Some patients in the 2014 cohort will have less than a 3-year follow-up depending on when they initiated PD. A transition to ICHD was defined as at least 30 consecutive days of ICHD following the switch from PD to ICHD. Time at risk was calculated as days from PD incidence until the outcome of interest occurred or until censoring for loss to follow-up, recovery of renal function, discontinuation of dialysis, or end of the 3-year follow-up. Patients were followed up for 30 days after recovery of renal function or discontinuation of dialysis before they were censored to avoid underestimation of death events.
