背景和目的为了减少移植中的种族差异，必须确定与完成移植评估和接受活体供体肾移植相关的可修改的患者特征。设计、设置、参与者和测量从2004年到2007年，695名黑人和白色患者在评估开始时被调查了15个较少可修改的特征和10个较多可修改的特征;确定他们是否在1年内完成评估并在2010年前接受活体供肾移植。进行逻辑回归和竞争风险事件时间分析，以确定预测评估完成和活体供肾移植接收的变量。结果在不调整协变量的情况下，黑人完成评估的可能性低于白人（26.2%比51.8%，P
Background and objectives To reduce racial disparities in transplant, modifiable patient characteristics associated with completion of transplant evaluation and receipt of living donor kidney transplant must be identified.Design, setting, participants, & measurements From 2004 to 2007, 695 black and white patients were surveyed about 15 less-modifiable and 10 more-modifiable characteristics at evaluation onset; whether they had completed evaluation within 1 year and received living donor kidney transplants by 2010 was determined. Logistic regression and competing risks time-to-event analysis were conducted to determine the variables that predicted evaluation completion and living donor kidney transplant receipt.Results Not adjusting for covariates, blacks were less likely than whites to complete evaluation (26.2% versus 51.8%, P
