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

Porcine cells devoid of three major carbohydrate xenoantigens, αGal, Neu5GC, and SDa (TKO) exhibit markedly reduced binding of human natural antibodies. Therefore, it is anticipated that TKO pigs will be better donors for human xenotransplantation. However, previous studies on TKO pigs using old world monkeys (OWMs) have been disappointing because of higher anti-TKO pig antibodies in OWMs than humans. Here, we show that long-term survival of renal xenografts from TKO pigs that express additional human transgenes (hTGs) can be achieved in cynomolgus monkeys. Kidney xenografts from TKO-hTG pigs were transplanted into eight cynomolgus recipients without pre-screening for low anti-pig antibody titers. Two recipients of TKO-hTG xenografts with low expression of human complement regulatory proteins (CRPs) (TKO-A) survived for 2 and 61 days, whereas six recipients of TKO-hTG xenografts with high CRP expression (TKO-B) survived for 15, 20, 71, 135, 265, and 316 days.
