Diagram plotting the distribution of time between the last and current peritonitis episodes in different reports.
<p>Our contemporary cohort demonstrated a significantly longer latency compared with the others (<i>P</i><0.01 between the after-2000 cohort and the historic 1 and 2 cohorts). Historic 1 cohort, data derived from <i>Am J Kidney Dis</i> 1989; 14(2): 101–4 Historic 2 cohort, data derived from <i>Perit Dial Int</i> 1994; 14(2): 174–7.</p
