Each model tested for interaction between PPIM coprescribing and frailty.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Results: &lt;/strong&gt;Overall, PPIM coprescribing was associated with increased hazard of AMS (HR, 1.66 [95% CI, 1.44-1.92]) and falls (HR, 1.55 [95% CI, 1.36-1.77]). Frailty significantly modified the effect of PPIM coprescribing on the hazard of AMS (interaction P=0.01) but not falls. Among individuals with low frailty (FI=0.15), the HR for AMS with PPIM coprescribing was 2.14 (95% CI, 1.69-2.71); for individuals with severe frailty (FI=0.34), the hazard ratio for AMS with PPIM coprescribing was 1.64 (95% CI, 1.42-1.89). Individuals with PPIM coprescribing and severe frailty (FI=0.34) had the highest hazard of AMS (HR, 3.22 [95% CI, 2.55-4.06]) and falls (HR, 2.77 [95% CI, 2.27-3.38]) compared with nonfrail individuals without PPIM coprescribing.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Limitations: &lt;/strong&gt;Outcome ascertainment bias; residual confounding.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Conclusions: &lt;/strong&gt;Compared with gabapentinoid prescriptions alone, PPIM coprescribing was associated with an increased risk of AMS and falls.

KAS250's association with likelihood of DDKT varied across centers from HR, 0.18 (DDKT less likely after KAS250), to HR, 17.12 (DDKT more likely) and varied even among neighboring centers. KAS250 was associated with decreased DDKT at 25.6% and increased DDKT at 18.2% of centers. Centers with previously long median waiting times (57+months) experienced increased likelihood of DDKT after KAS250 (HR, 1.20 [95% CI, 1.15-1.26]) whereas centers with previously short median waiting times (6-24 months; HR, 0.88 [95% CI, 0.84-0.92]) experienced decreased likelihood of DDKT.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Limitations: &lt;/strong&gt;Retrospective study of allocation policy changes, confounded by multiple changes over the study time frame.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Conclusions: &lt;/strong&gt;Association between KAS250 and DDKT varied across centers. For 1 in 4 centers, DDKT was less likely after KAS250 relative to pre-KAS250 trends. Candidates at centers with previously long waiting times experienced an increased likelihood of DDKT after KAS250. Thus, broader distribution of kidneys may be associated with improved equity in access to DDKT, but additional strategies may be needed to minimize disparities between centers.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Plain-language summary: &lt;/strong&gt;This study examines how a recent policy change, KAS250, aimed at broadening the geographic sharing of deceased-donor kidneys, has impacted likelihood of kidney transplantation in the United States. Historically, kidney allocation occurred within local geographic boundaries, leading to unequal rates of transplantation across regions. KAS250, implemented in March 2021, replaced this system with a broader allocation radius of 250 miles around the donor hospital. Using national registry data, the study found that while there was no overall significant increase in the likelihood of transplantation nationally under KAS250, the policy's effect varied widely even among neighboring transplant centers.
