[Update kidney allograft pathology : A better depiction of microvascular inflammation].
Review in Pathologie (Heidelberg, Germany), 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the 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.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
backgroundThe Banff Foundation produces recommendations for classifying various lesions in renal allografts. Experts gather to update the classification every other year based on new scientific and clinical evidence.
objectivesThis article presents the most important changes incorporated into the new recommendations after the last Banff conference. MATERIALS AND
methodsThe author of this article personally took part in the Banff conference and the subsequent survey, reported on the activities of a Banff working group (peritubular capillaritis) on-site, and contributed to drafting the recently published meeting report.
resultsLesions of antibody-mediated kidney allograft rejection (AMR), especially microvascular inflammation, have been part of the diagnostic algorithm for over 20 years. Experts advocated for a simplified AMR algorithm and mindful inclusion of molecular pathological data in the clinicopathological reflection regarding therapeutic decision. A new, more descriptive diagnostic entity-microvascular inflammation, C4d negative and DSA negative-has been introduced into the AMR category to acknowledge this histological constellation and motivate research into this pathophysiologically and immunologically probably different phenotype.
conclusionsThe Banff classification provides a structure for diagnosing kidney transplant pathology. Regular updates serve to adapt to ever-growing knowledge about alloimmunity. Particular challenges are capturing the complexity of various immunological scenarios and ensuring an understandable representation of these in a pathology report.
