    Odds ratios (ORs) for preemptive transplantation in Black (upper panel) and Hispanic (lower panel) patients with autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) compared with White patients. Two networks (Network 6 and Network 8) are omitted from the lower panel because no preemptive transplants occurred in Hispanic patients during the study period. 95% CI, 95 confidence interval; CMS, Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services; CO, Colorado; IN, Indiana; MN, Minnesota; NC, North Carolina; NJ, New Jersey; VA, Virginia; WA, Washington.
