Individualized management of immunosuppressants in liver transplant recipients by using a novel immune score system.
Article in American journal of translational research, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
backgroundThere is no reliable means to evaluate the immune status of liver transplant recipients. We proposed a novel score model, namely Mingdao immune cell analysis and Mingdao immune score system, to quantify the immunity.
methodsData from those who underwent a single liver transplant between January 2017 and June 2020 at Beijing Chaoyang Hospital, were collected. In addition, healthy volunteers were also enrolled. The score model was based on the immune cell populations determined by flow cytometry.
resultsThere were a total of 376 healthy controls with 376 tests and 148 liver transplant recipients with 284 tests in this study. Evaluated by Mingdao immune cell analysis and Mingdao immune score system, the mean scores of healthy controls were near zero suggesting a balanced immune system. In contrast, the mean scores of liver transplant recipients were negative both before and after surgery indicating a compromised immune system. When liver transplant recipients were given a reduced or routine first dose according to their preoperative score, they had similar recovery of liver function. Moreover, liver transplant recipients with increased scores ≥ 5 were associated with elevated aspartate transaminase and alanine amiotransferase. Finally, on multivariate analysis the score model was the only significant independent risk factor for clinical acute rejection (P = 0.021; Odds ratio, 0.913; 95% confidence interval, 0.845-0.987).
conclusionThe novel score model could be used as an indicator to reflect immunity and to regulate immunosuppressants in liver transplant recipients after surgery.
