Table 3 Donor and recipient characteristics by transplant volume via linear regression analysis.

Donor/recipient characteristics	Beta coefficient	95% C.I.	P-value
Donor upper age limit (years)	0.073	−0.082–0.227	0.336
Donor upper BMI limit (kg/m)	−0.042	−0.096–0.011	0.109
DCD donor upper age limit (years)	0.038	−0.244–0.321	0.77
DCD max WIT (minutes)	0.249	−0.262–0.761	0.303
DCD max CIT (hours)	0.071	−0.035–0.177	0.165
Recipient upper age limit (years)	0.105	−0.005–0.216	0.061
Recipient upper BMI limit (kg/m)	0.007	−0.055–0.068	0.824
BMI – body mass index; CI – confidence interval; CIT – cold ischaemic time; DCD – donor after cardiac death; WIT – warm ischaemic time. DCD donor BMI not analysed as similar upper limits were reported by all responding units. Age in years, BMI in kg/m, ischaemic time in minutes, values in mean (standard deviation).
