Donor race should not be used in models to predict allograft and patient survival.Removing donor race from the Kidney Donor Risk Index may reduce kidney discard by reclassifying approximately 50% of high kidney donor profile index kidneys.Future prediction models should focus on using relevant biologic factors rather than social constructs when trying to predict outcomes.
供者种族不应用于预测移植物和患者生存率的模型中。从 Kidney Donor Risk Index 中删除供者种族信息,可能会通过重新分类约 50% 的高 Kidney Donor Profile Index 肾脏,从而减少肾脏废弃。未来的预测模型应侧重于在尝试预测结果时使用相关的生物学因素,而不是社会结构。
