Figure 1

Flow chart displaying selection of study participants for analysis. Out of 706 liver transplant recipients present in the Solid Organ Transplant Unit database, 26 patients were excluded because of graft survival < 6 months and 101 patients were excluded because of missing data. After further exclusion of 97 patients who had the outcome at baseline and 42 cases without a follow-up visit, the remaining sample of 440 consecutive liver transplant recipients was included in the present study.
