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

Background: Pretransplant therapies such as rituximab and plasmapheresis have led to an increase in ABO-incompatible (ABOi) living donor liver transplantation (LDLT), thus helping to overcome organ shortages. This study evaluated the changes in anti-A/B titers and CD19 levels over time in patients undergoing ABOi LT and aimed to understand the effect of single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in Fc gamma receptor (FcγR) on rituximab therapy. Methods: Two SNPs of Results: Following desensitization with rituximab and subsequent LDLT, the anti-A/B titer recovered within 1 week, but decreased thereafter. The CD19 level increased at 3 months after LT. The genotyping data for Conclusions: There were significant changes in the anti-A/B titers and CD19 levels over time in each patient after ABOi LDLT. The difference in outcomes following LT according to the FcγR SNP type for rituximab was unclear. Further studies with larger sample sizes are needed to confirm the effect of FcγR SNPs on rituximab therapy.
