Availability of living donor optimizes timing of liver transplant in high-risk waitlisted cirrhosis patients

Figure 3. Competing risk analysis for time to transplant stratified by availability of potential living donor for patients. (A) MELD-Na <20 vs. MELD-Na ≥20; interaction p < 0.0001, (B) Moderate to severe frailty vs. None to mild frailty; interaction p = 0.03, and (C) Height <160 cm vs. ≥160 cm; interaction p = 0.03.
