¹Fourteen kidneys were transplanted in 11 recipients. Therefore, clinical outcomes are calculated in the 11 recipients;

²Outcomes were only mentioned from their own center. DCD: Donation after circulatory death; DGF: Delayed graft function; HRP: Hypothermic regional perfusion; NRP: Normothermic regional perfusion; PNF: Primary non function.
