Until December 2020, 1011 KT with COVID-19 have been prospectively included in the Spanish Registry and followed until recovery or death. In multivariable analysis, age, pneumonia, and KT performed ≤6 months before COVID-19 were predictors of death, whereas gastrointestinal symptoms were protective. Survival analysis showed significant increasing mortality risk in four subgroups according to recipient age and time after KT (age 6 months, age 6 and age ≥65 and time ≤6): mortality rates were, respectively, 11.3%, 24.5%, 35.4%, and 54.5% (p enclinical research/practiceinfection and infectious agents - viralkidney transplantation/nephrologypatient survivalAgedCOVID-19HumansInfantKidney TransplantationPandemicsRegistriesSARS-CoV-2Transplant RecipientsPredictors of severe COVID-19 in kidney transplant recipients in the different epidemic waves: Analysis of the Spanish Registry.research article33756067open access10.1111/ajt.165791600-6143PMC8250925https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC8250925https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC8250925/pdf
