  1. a. Variables adjusted in the all age group included recipient age (continuous), recipient sex, primary disease, comorbidities, SES, PRA, and medical center. For a specific age group, all the above variables except for recipient age were included. In this comparison, transplantation with a deceased donor was used as a reference
  2. b. Variables adjusted in the all age group included recipient age (continuous), primary disease, comorbidities, dialysis vintage, PRA, HLA-ABDR mismatch, donor characteristics (age, sex, BMI, hypertension, last serum creatinine before donation, and extended criteria deceased donor), and medical center. For a specific age group, all the above variables except for recipient age were included. In this comparison, transplantation with a DBD donor was used as a reference
  3. c. P-value for interaction between age and donor type (living donor versus deceased donor): 0.38
  4. d. P-value for interaction between age and donor type (DCD donor versus DBD donor): 0.54
