3.5 Occurrence of adverse outcomes
A total of 10 patients in the included population required ICU admission, all in the renal transplant group; six patients experienced death, also in the renal transplant group. In terms of organ impairment, graft failure occurred in five of the renal transplant patients and liver failure in one of the non-renal transplant patients. Using death or admission to the ICU as the adverse outcome, Kaplan-Meier curves were plotted for the occurrence of adverse outcomes in both groups, and the cumulative risk of adverse events was higher in the renal transplant group than in the non-renal transplant patients, with a statistically significant difference by Log-rank test (p =0.028).(Fgure 5、6)
