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

Introduction: The importance of donor-specific antibodies (DSAs) in renal transplantation has long been recognized, but the significance of human leukocyte antigen (HLA)-DP antibodies remains less clear. We performed a retrospective single center study of renal transplants with pre-existing isolated HLA-DP-DSAs to assess clinical outcomes. Methods: Twenty-three patients with isolated HLA-DP-DSAs were compared with 3 control groups as follows: standard immunological risk (calculated reaction frequency [cRF] < 85%, no current or historical DSA, no repeat mismatched antigens with previous transplants, Results: Over a median follow-up of 1197 days, 65% of HLA-DP-DSA patients had ABMR on indication biopsies, and 30% of HLA-DP-DSA patients lost their graft. Pre-existing HLA-DP DSAs remained the single factor associated with ABMR after multivariable analysis (hazard ratio [HR] = 9.578, Conclusion: Transplants with pre-existing HLA-DP-DSAs should be considered high risk. Routine laboratory tests are unable to further risk stratify these patients. Recipients should be considered for intensified immunosuppression and closely monitored.
