Table 1. Multivariate logistic analysis to determine independent factors for the presence of simple renal cysts in donors. Gender, age (stratified as ≤50 and >50 years), BSA, BMI, SBP, DBP, eGFR, sCr, BUN, uric acid, ALT, AST, total bilirubin, serum albumin, glucose, hemoglobin, total cholesterol, HDL-cholesterol, LDL-cholesterol and triglyceride levels between donors with and without cysts were analyzed. Variables of p < 0.2 were included in multivariate regression model

Fig. 1. a, b Average concentration of sCr and eGFR in recipients of donor kidney with and without cysts. In the 2 groups, the case numbers were 64:128, 64:128, 64:128, 49:93 and 29:62 on day 7, month 6, year 1, year 3 and year 5, respectively, after living donor kidney transplantation. The sCr levels on year 5 were skewed continuous data, calculated by Mann-Whitney U test (p = 0.056). * Indicates statistical significance (p < 0.05).
