HD: healthy donor, CGD: chronic graft dysfunction, ELTGF: excellent long-term graft function under immunosuppression, LRD: living related donor, DD: deceased donor, cause of ESRD: A: unknown, B: congenital, C: chronic UTI, D: Glomerulonephritis, E: Poststreptococcal glomerulonephritis, F: Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, G: Diabetes Mellitus, sCr: serum creatinine, ESRD: end stage renal disease, eGFR: estimated glomerular filtration rate, AZA: azathioprine, PDN: prednisone, CNI: calcineurin inhibitor, MMF: mycophenolate mofetil, SRL: sirolimus.
*DD was assigned as “0-Haplotypes-match” because donor MHC typing was not available.
