Comparison of Mortality in All Patients on Dialysis, Patients on Dialysis Awaiting Transplantation, and Recipients of a First Cadaveric Transplant

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors conducted a longitudinal study of mortality in 228,552 patients who were receiving long-term dialysis for end-stage renal disease, and 46,164 were placed on a waiting list for transplantation, 23,275 of whom received a first cadaveric transplant between 1991 and 1997.
Journal ArticleDOI

Chronic renal failure after transplantation of a nonrenal organ.

TL;DR: The five-year risk of chronic renal failure after transplantation of a nonrenal organ ranges from 7 to 21 percent, depending on the type of organ transplanted, and is associated with an increase by a factor of more than four in the risk of death.
Journal ArticleDOI

Delayed graft function: risk factors and implications for renal allograft survival.

TL;DR: Delayed function and early rejection episodes exerted an additive adverse effect on allograft survival and the deleterious impact of delayed function is comparatively more severe than that of poor HLA matching.
Journal ArticleDOI

Vascular access use in europe and the united states: results from the dopps

TL;DR: Large differences in vascular access use exist between EUR and the US, even after adjustment for patient characteristics, and the results strongly suggest that a facility's preferences and approaches to vascular access practice are major determinants of vascularAccess use.
Journal ArticleDOI

Health-related quality of life as a predictor of mortality and hospitalization: the Dialysis Outcomes and Practice Patterns Study (DOPPS).

TL;DR: Lower scores for the three major components of HRQOL were strongly associated with higher risk of death and hospitalization in hemodialysis patients, independent of a series of demographic and comorbid factors.
