Information was extracted from donors matched to enrolled recipients. Data was presented in mean ± SD for data in normal distribution and median (IQR) for data in abnormal distribution. a, one-way ANOVA test was assayed for normal distributed data; Mann-Whitney U test was assayed for abnormal distributed data; chi-square test was assayed for patient distribution. * represents the significant difference compared to other groups. M, male; F, female; BMI, body mass index; ALT, alanine aminotransferase; FBG, fasting blood glucose; CR, creatinine; BUN, blood urea nitrogen; CIT, cold ischemia time; WIT, warm ischemia time.
