Early and recurrent hospitalization after kidney transplantation: Analysis of a contemporary canadian cohort of kidney transplant recipients
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Hospital readmission is a common occurrence following kidney transplantation, but less is known about the predictors of early and recurrent hospitalization. We analyzed a cohort of adult kidney transplant recipients in Nova Scotia, Canada, from January 2010 to December 2015. Readmission rates for 30 days, 6 months, and 1 year were calculated as a proportion of total transplants. Factors independently associated with early readmission were investigated using multivariable Cox hazards models with multivariable Anderson-Gill Cox models being used for factors independently associated with recurrent readmission. Of the 213 patients included, 41 (19.2%), 78 (36.6%), and 88 (41.3%) were readmitted to hospital within 30 days, 6 months, and 1 year, respectively. On multivariable analyses, a history of congestive heart failure (HR 1.741, 95% CI 1.039-2.918), peptic ulcer disease (HR 2.290, 95% CI 1.054-4.973), and liver disease (HR 2.492, 95% CI 1.162-5.344) was associated with higher risk of first rehospitalization. Recurrent hospital admission was associated with initial hospital duration ≥ 8 days (HR 2.140, 95% CI 1.265-3.618), congestive heart failure (HR 1.366, 95% CI 1.044-1.787), and liver disease (HR 1.785, 95% CI 1.257-2.534). Increasing duration of initial hospitalization, congestive heart failure, and liver disease are important to consider when evaluating a patient's risk for recurrent readmission following kidney transplant.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
