2. Figure 1
Kaplan-Meier curves for the probability of patient survival (upper line), stay on dialysis (middle line), and stay on peritoneal dialysis (bottom line). Death is the event in the patient survival curve, whereas transplantation is a censored observation. Death and transplantation are the events in the stay on dialysis curve. Death, transplantation, and transfer to hemodialysis are all events in the stay on peritoneal dialysis curve.
