1 Lung Transplant Mortality Is Improving in Recipients With a Lung Allocation Score in the Upper Quartile  Todd C. Crawford, MD, Joshua C. Grimm, MD, J. Trent Magruder, MD, Jinny Ha, MD, Christopher M. Sciortino, MD, Bo S. Kim, MD, Errol L. Bush, MD, John V. Conte, MD, Robert S. Higgins, MD, Ashish S. Shah, MD, Christian A.

2 Fig 1 Kaplan-Meier survival analysis for lung transplant recipients 30 days after transplantation. The differences in probability of survival in more recent eras did not reach statistical significance (log rank p = 0.152).

3 Fig 2 Kaplan-Meier survival analysis for lung transplant recipients 1 year after transplantation. There is a statistically significant difference in survival probability for recipients receiving transplants in more recent eras (log rank p = 0.001).

4 Fig 3 Predictors of 30-day mortality (left) and the unadjusted and adjusted impact of transplantation era on 30-day mortality (right). Era 2 = January 1, 2009, to December 31, 2011; Era 3 = January 1, 2012, to March 31, (BMI = body mass index; CF = cystic fibrosis; CI = confidence interval; COPD = chronic obstructive pulmonary disease; ECMO = extracorporeal membrane oxygenation; HR = hazard ratio; KPS = Karnofsky performance status; LL = lower limit; UL = upper limit.)

5 Fig 4 Predictors of 1 year mortality (left) and the unadjusted and adjusted impact of transplant era on 1 year mortality (right). Era 2 = January 1, 2009, to December 31, 2011; Era 3 = January 1, 2012, to March 31, (BMI = body mass index; CF = cystic fibrosis; CI = confidence interval; COPD = chronic obstructive pulmonary disease; ECMO = extracorporeal membrane oxygenation; GFR = glomerular filtration rate; HR = hazard ratio; ICU = intensive care unit; KPS = Karnofsky performance status; LL = lower limit; UL = upper limit.)
