¹In 4 out of 77 subjects the AUDIT score is missing; all analyses are based on the subset with AUDIT scores.

²donor and recipient age: Wilcoxon rank sum test; all categorical variables: Fisher’s Exact test; ICU and hospital LOS: Log-Rank test.

³The ischemic time is missing on 13 out of 74 subjects (11 with AUDIT <8, 2 with AUDIT ≥ 8).
