| †
A p-value gives the probability that a difference between observed and
expected is due to random chance. A
p-value of <.05 is usually considered statistically significant. |
| * Person years are calculated as days
(converted to fractional years). The
number of days from July 1 or from the date of first wait listing until
removal from the wait list or the end of one year. |
| **The expected transplant rate is adjusted for age,
blood type, previous transplantation,
Peak PRA, and the |
| interaction
between previous transplantation and Peak PRA. |
| ***The expected mortality rate is adjusted for age,
race, ethnicity, gender, and blood type. |
