Shown are results from Cox proportional hazards models for the association of late follow-up 25-hydroxyvitamin-D3 (25(OH)D3, day 32 to 100) or peritransplant 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin-D3 (1,25(OH)2D3, day −2 to 7) with TRM without and with adjustment for risk factors and sensitivity analyses. P values ≤0.05 are marked in bold.
