Centre volume was defined by the number of patients starting PD by centre and by year; PD centres were separated in 2 groups with a cut-off value of 10 new patients by year and by centre based on the graphical representation of the regression spline. A mixed Cox model was used to estimate the role of the centre volume on the centre effect. A Cox model was performed to assess the association between the centre volume and the cause-specific risk of transfer to HD.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Of the 15653 patients included, 4293 (27%) started PD in a centre with a volume greater than 10. The transfer to HD heterogeneity between centre was reduced by the centre volume (variance reduction of 13%). In the multivariable analysis, the centre volume was associated with lower risk of transfer to HD (cause-specific hazard ratio (cs-HR): 0.86, 95% confidence interval (CI): [0.80\u20130.92]), but not with the risk of death (cs-HR: 1.06 [95% CI: 1.00\u20131.13]) or kidney transplantation (cs-HR: 0.97 [95% CI: 0.90\u20131.06]). Centre volume was associated with lower risk of transfer to HD due to small solute clearance or inadequate ultrafiltration (cs-HR\u2009=\u20090.80 [95% CI: 0.72\u20130.89]), but was not associated with transfer to HD by peritonitis (cs-HR: 0.97 [95% CI: 0.82\u20131.16]), or catheter-related issues (cs-HR: 0.85 [95% CI: 0.67\u20131.09]).<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>The centre volume reduced the risk of transfer to HD due to small solute clearance or inadequate ultrafiltration.
