NA indicates not applicable.

Other significant comparisons:

  • Scandinavian vs white American (less than 3 mo): RR = 0.38; 95% CI, 0.21-0.69; P = .015

  • Scandinavian vs African American (less than 3 mo): RR = 0.19; 95% CI, 0.09-0.40; P < .001

*

Time-dependent covariate, such that risk for TRM varied before and 3 months after transplantation.

4 degrees of freedom test.

Adjusted for 10 multiple comparisons.
