Predictors and one-year outcomes of patients with delayed graft function after deceased donor kidney transplantation.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Delayed graft function (DGF) is closely associated with the use of marginal donated kidneys due to deficits during transplantation and in recipients. We aimed to predict the incidence of DGF and evaluate its effect on graft survival.

Methods

This retrospective study on kidney transplantation was conducted from January 1, 2018, to December 31, 2019, at the Second Xiangya Hospital of Central South University. We classified recipients whose operations were performed in different years into training and validation cohorts and used data from the training cohort to analyze predictors of DGF. A nomogram was then constructed to predict the likelihood of DGF based on these predictors.

Results

The incidence rate of DGF was 16.92%. Binary logistic regression analysis
