Case report: Dynamic antibody monitoring in a case of anti-recombinant human erythropoietin-mediated pure red cell aplasia with prolonged course after kidney transplantation.

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.
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
Anti-erythropoietin (anti-EPO) antibody-mediated pure red cell aplasia (PRCA) is a rarely seen disease. Anti-EPO antibodies were mostly found in patients with chronic kidney disease who received recombinant human erythropoietin (rHuEPO) injections subcutaneously. The treatment against anti-EPO antibody-mediated PRCA included discontinuation of rHuEPO, immunosuppressive agents, intravenous immunoglobulin, plasmapheresis, or kidney transplantation. We reported a case of kidney transplant recipient with anti-EPO antibody-mediated PRCA, who had no trend of recovery after stopping rHuEPO, receiving regular induction and maintenance immunosuppressive regimens. He was further given 6 consecutive plasmapheresis sessions, cyclophosphamide, and adjusted maintenance immunosuppressive regimen into cyclosporine, sirolimus and prednisone. We monitored his anti-EPO antibody levels with a self-created simple mixing test. At 10 months post kidney transplant, his anti-EPO antibody finally turned negative, and his reticulocyte count dramatically increased. Cyclosporine, sirolimus and prednisone combined with roxadustat eventually alleviated the patient's anti-EPO antibody-mediated PRCA. Our self-created simple mixing test for anti-EPO antibody titer was very helpful in disease monitoring and therapeutic guidance.
