Data are presented as the number of patients (percentages), mean ± standard deviation or median (25th; 75th percentiles). In the first column, ‘n’ is the number of available data when the analyses are not performed on the whole sample (n = 66).

a

The one patient who did not have FSGS recurrence on his first graft had a recurrence on the second.

b

The two patients who did not have FSGS recurrence on the second graft had a recurrence on the first one.
