Treated rejection = Recipient was reported to (1) have at least
one acute rejection episode that was treated with an anti-
rejection agent; or (2) have been hospitalized for rejection.
No rejection = Recipient had (i) no acute rejection episodes
and (ii) was reported either as not hospitalized for rejection or
did not receive anti-rejection agents.
