Table 3.
Comparison of Transplantation Characteristics Based on Outcome of Need to Regraft, Reported as Numbers with Percentages for Categorical Variables and Means with One Standard Deviation for Continuous Variables. Chi-Square Tests for Categorical Characteristics and Independent Samples t-tests for Continuous Variables are Utilized
