REGRESSION, INFLAMMATION
Patient characteristics were reported as absolute and relative frequencies for categorical data and for numerical data as means and standard deviation (SD) if normally distributed or medians (range) otherwise. Comparison between groups were done using t-tests, Mann-Whitney U tests, Chi-square, Wilcoxon signed-rank tests or Fisher’s exact tests as appropriate. Univariable and multivariable linear regression analyses were performed for physical and mental component scores at 6, 12, and 24 months after kidney transplantation. Treatment group, baseline PCS and MCS scores, risk group (for PTDM), renal function (eGFR), hemoglobin, inflammation (CRP), and glycemic control (HbA1c, OGTT) were included in the univariable analysis as covariates. All variables with a
