Predictors of graft function and survival in second kidney transplantation: A single center experience

Figure 1 Kaplan-Meier curve for overall survival rates. A: First graft survival with 95% confidence bands. Twenty-three cases were excluded from the analysis due to primary non-function grafts. All 25 cases had the event; B: Second graft survival with 95% confidence bands. Five cases were excluded from the analysis due to primary non-function grafts. Thirteen cases had the event, while 30 cases were censored; C: Patient survival after the second kidney transplantation with 95% confidence bands. Only five patients died, while 43 patients were censored.

Figure 2 Kaplan-Meier curves for the second graft survival stratified by the mode of graft function. A: In the first kidney transplantation; B: In the second kidney transplantation.

Figure 3 Kaplan-Meier curves for the second graft survival stratified by four non-significant predictors related to the first kidney transplantation. A: End-stage renal disease caused by diabetes mellitus; B: Acute rejection within one year after first transplantation; C: First graft loss by acute rejection; D: First graft nephrectomy.

Figure 4 Kaplan-Meier curves for the second graft survival stratified by three non-significant predictors related to the donor of second kidney transplantation. A: Living versus deceased donor; B: Number of human leukocytic antigens mismatches; C: Panel reactive antibodies. HLA: human leukocytic antigens; PRA: Panel reactive antibodies.

Figure 5 Kaplan-Meier curves for the second graft survival stratified by second non-significant predictors related to the second kidney transplantation recipient. A: Number of renal arteries; B: Vascular complications.
