Relative prevalence of renal replacement therapy modalities (95% confidence intervals) by socioeconomic deprivation and road travel distance to the nearest renal unit, Trent Region, UK 2000
| Haemodialysis | Peritoneal dialysis | Transplantation | All renal replacement therapy | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Socioeconomic deprivation category was based on the ED level Townsend score. Prevalence of renal replacement therapy modalities is relative to the corresponding reference (baseline) category. Poisson regression models included age, gender, percentage black and Asian population, deprivation category, and road travel distance. | ||||
