The IMBG Test for Evaluating the Pharmacodynamic Response to Immunosuppressive Therapy in Kidney Transplant Patients: Current Evidence and Future Applications.
Article in International journal of molecular sciences, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT05816486 (Longitudinal Observational Study to Determine the Correlation Between Patient's Pharmacodynamic Response to Immunosuppressants Measured in Vitro With IMMUNOBIOGRAM and of Rejection in Graft Biopsies in Patients With Renal Transplantation), which is not on this map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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.

Abstract
Immunosuppressive drugs are widely used to prevent rejection after kidney transplantation. However, the pharmacological response to a given immunosuppressant can vary markedly between individuals, with some showing poor treatment responses and/or experiencing serious side effects. There is an unmet need for diagnostic tools that allow clinicians to individually tailor immunosuppressive therapy to a patient's immunological profile. The Immunobiogram (IMBG) is a novel blood-based in vitro diagnostic test that provides a pharmacodynamic readout of the immune response of individual patients to a range of immunosuppressants commonly used in kidney transplant recipients. Here, we discuss the current approaches used to measure the pharmacodynamic responses of individual patients to specific immunosuppressive drugs in vitro, which can then be correlated with patient's clinical outcomes. We also describe the procedure of the IMBG assay, and summarize the results obtained using the IMBG in different kidney transplant populations. Finally, we outline future directions and other novel applications of the IMBG, both in kidney transplant patients and other autoimmune diseases.
