Table 2.

Variables Influencing In Vivo Islet Transplantation Outcomes.

Variables Category R (AUC_0-28) P-value Notes
Viability-semi-automated (%) Post-isolation assay −0.299 0.0001 Correlated with good glycemic control
Donor BMI Donor/Isolation 0.2239 0.0048 Correlated with poor glycemic control
Average islet area (µm2) Post-isolation assay 0.2204 0.0055 Correlated with poor glycemic control
Post-isolation IPN Post-isolation assay −0.2068 0.0094 Correlated with good glycemic control

Pretransplant variables are listed according to the order of statistical relationship to AUC_0-28. Coefficient of correlation (R) is shown instead of coefficient of determination (R 2); negative R value indicates that the factor has a positive correlation with favorable transplantation outcomes (i.e., low AUC_0-28). Only variables with statistically significant correlations with transplantation outcome are listed. An intercorrelation matrix of all variables is shown separately in supplemental Table 2.AUC: area under the curve; BMI: body mass index; IPN: islet particulate number.
