Key Words Kidney transplant; Hypothermic machine perfusion; Normothermic machine perfusion; Machine learning; Clustering; Phenotype
Core Tip Using unsupervised clustering, we identified latent clinical phenotypes that demonstrated a non-random distribution of machine perfusion (MP) across the population. MP cases were notably concentrated within specific clusters, while the overall cluster structure remained mostly stable when focusing solely on MP recipients. This indicates that MP is integrated within the wider phenotypic landscape rather than creating distinct subgroups. Importantly, these phenotypes continued to hold outcome patterns within the MP cohort, although some varied among certain clusters. These findings suggest that MP interacts with the underlying profiles of recipients and donors, potentially altering outcome trajectories depending on the specific phenotype.
