Figure 2From: Overestimation of the probability of death on peritoneal dialysis by the Kaplan-Meier method: advantages of a competing risks approach Sum of probabilities estimated by the Kaplan-Meier and competing risks methods. Event-free survival (EFS) and the cumulative incidence curves for death, transfer to hemodialysis (HD), and renal transplantation (RT) are stacked. The upper line (in bold) represents the sum of probabilities of the different events.Back to article page
