1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

backgroundCharacteristics of pretransplant antibodies directed at donor human leukocyte antigen (HLA) donor-specific antibodies (DSA) associated with adverse outcomes in kidney transplant recipients are being elucidated but uncertainties exist.

methodsWe prospectively screened pretransplant sera from 543 kidney recipients using single antigen bead assays and identified 154 patients with and 389 without DSA. We investigated the association of DSA features to acute rejection and graft failure.

resultsOne-year acute rejection incidence was higher in DSA-positive group (P < 0.001), primarily due to antibody-mediated rejection (AMR, 13% vs. 1.8%, P < 0.001) and not T cell-mediated rejection (ACR, 5% vs.6%, P = 0.65). The sum of mean fluorescence intensity of DSA (DSA MFI-Sum) of 6,000 or higher (OR, 18; 95% CI, 7.0-47; P < 0.001) and the presence of DSA against both HLA class I and II (OR, 39; 95% CI, 14-106; P < 0.0001) predicted 1-year AMR, independent of other covariates. Calculated panel reactive antibody and a positive flow cytometry cross-match result were associated with AMR by bivariate analysis but neither was an independent predictor in a multivariable regression analysis that included DSA-MFI-Sum or HLA DSA class. In multivariable Cox proportional hazards models, the covariate-adjusted hazard ratio for graft failure was 2.03 (95%CI, 1.05-3.92; P = 0.04) for DSA MFI-Sum of 6,000 or higher and 2.23 (95% CI, 1.04-4.80; P = 0.04) for class I and II DSA. Prediction of graft failure was not independent of AMR.

conclusionOur study suggests that DSA MFI-Sum and HLA class of DSA are characteristics predictive of AMR and graft failure. The elevated risk of graft failure in those with the identified features of DSA is attributable to increased risk of AMR.
