The findings are based on data from the following renal registries providing individual patient data: Austria, Belgium (Dutch-speaking), Belgium (French-speaking), Bosnia and Herzegovina, Denmark, Finland, France, Greece, Iceland, Norway, Spain (Andalusia), Spain (Aragon), Spain (Asturias), Spain (Basque country), Spain (Cantabria), Spain (Castile and León), Spain (Castile-La Mancha), Spain (Catalonia), Spain (Community of Madrid), Spain (Extremadura), Spain (Galicia), Spain (Valencian region), Sweden, the Netherlands, UK (England/Northern Ireland/Wales) and UK (Scotland). Unadjusted survival probabilities were calculated using the Kaplan–Meier method, and adjusted survival probabilities using the Cox regression model.

a

Analyses were adjusted using fixed values: age (67 years), sex (63% men) and cause of kidney failure (24% DM, 19% hypertension/renal vascular disease, 11% glomerulonephritis and 46% other causes).

b

Analyses were adjusted using fixed values: age (50 years), sex (63% men) and cause of kidney failure (14% DM, 10% hypertension/renal vascular disease, 23% glomerulonephritis and 53% other causes).
