Unadjusted contributions of continuous factors to risk of graft failure. (a) Warm ischemic time (WIT). On multivariate analysis, risk of graft failure increases by 0.2% per minute (). (b) Cold ischemic time (CIT) contributes to 2.4% increased graft failure risk per hour. (c) Donor age increases graft failure risk by 0.4% per year of age. (d) Recipient age contributes to 0.5% per year of age. (e) Graft failure rates increase by 0.9% per MELD point.
