Mashup Score: 3Disparities in Kidney Transplant Waitlisting Among Young Patients Without Medical Comorbidities - 7 month(s) ago
Research over the last several decades has described disparities in access to kidney transplantation by race, ethnicity, socioeconomic status (SES), gender, and geographic region, revealing substantial inequities across all steps in the transplant process. For example, dialysis patients with lower (vs. higher) SES have lower rates of referral, and while Black (vs. non-Hispanic White) patients in the Southeastern United States have higher rates of referral for transplant evaluation, they have lower rates of initiating the medical evaluation1, are less likely to be waitlisted2 or to receive a living-donor transplant3,4, and have poorer outcomes post-transplant5,6.
