Figure 2 (A) Kaplan-Meier survival curves for all-cause mortality before and after transplantation in eligible patients (n = 95) stratified by the time of listing after the initial evaluation. Patients who are never listed have a trend toward better survival, compared with patients listed for a transplant (p = 0.06). Patients not listed early have survival similar to patients listed early for a transplant. (B) Kaplan-Meier survival curves for all-cause mortality, censoring patients at the time of transplantation, to depict pretransplant mortality in eligible patients stratified by the time of listing after the initial evaluation. There were no differences in survival between the patients not listed and the patients either listed early or late.
