The primary outcome was DGF, defined as the need for more than one dialysis within one week after transplantation as has been defined in prior clinical studies [22,23]. For example, one dialysis due to potassium lowering was not considered as DGF. Notably, in our tertiary center we avoid pretransplant dialysis to reduce cold ischemia time whenever reasonable, which leads to postoperative dialysis for hyperkalemia in some cases.
