DAA = direct-acting antiviral; HR = hazard ratio; CI = confidence interval; BMI = body mass index; HCC = hepatocellular carcinoma; HCV = hepatitis C virus; UNOS = United Network for Organ Sharing.

Model adjusted for demographics, HCV status, HCC status, diabetes, treatment era, BMI, biologic MELD at transplant, age at listing, and UNOS region.
