Mitigating High-risk EBV and CMV Through Kidney Paired Donation: A Survey of Potential Donor and Recipient Candidates.
Article in Transplantation direct, 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
Background: High-risk cytomegalovirus (CMV) and Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) mismatches (ie, seropositive donors to seronegative recipients) among kidney transplant recipients lead to increased healthcare utilization, inferior allograft outcomes, and high mortality. We assessed the interest among prospective kidney donor and recipient candidates to participate in kidney paired donation (KPD) for averting CMV/EBV high-risk mismatches. Methods: We surveyed 51 potential living donors and 102 kidney recipient candidates presenting for their evaluation visit at the University of Pittsburgh Medical Center between October 2022 and May 2023. We evaluated their general inclination toward KPD and their interest in KPD under various risk-benefit scenarios, particularly emphasizing the mitigation of high-risk mismatches associated with EBV and CMV. This was done using a 5-point Likert scale (1-low interest; 5-high interest) customized survey. Results: There was high interest in KPD among both donor and recipient candidates (median score 4 versus 4; Conclusions: Interest in KPD for avoiding CMV and EBV was high among both donor and recipient candidates. Additional research is required to assess the capacity and desirability for KPD expansion, particularly among ABO and HLA-compatible pairs.
