Article in Frontiers in immunology, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
Background: Donor-derived cell-free DNA (dd-cfDNA) is a promising non-invasive biomarker for detecting graft injury in solid organ transplant recipients. Elevated dd-cfDNA levels are strongly associated with rejection and graft injury, especially antibody-mediated rejection (ABMR). While Methods: We analyzed dd-cfDNA levels in 75 kidney transplant recipients who developed dnDSA post-transplant. dnDSA were categorized as "true", "possible", or "false" based on bead reactivity patterns and HLA typing. dd-cfDNA was assessed alongside dnDSA detection and sequential follow-up samples in a subgroup. Results: "True" dnDSA showed significantly higher dd-cfDNA levels compared to "possible" and "false" groups. None of the dd-cfDNA values in the "false" group exceeded 0.6%, and only a small fraction of the "possible" group had values slightly above 0.6%. dd-cfDNA levels were not significantly affected by dnDSA target loci or number. A strong correlation between cumulative dnDSA MFI and dd-cfDNA levels was observed, especially in patients with "true" HLA-DQ-directed dnDSA. Sequential dd-cfDNA analysis showed dynamic changes in 25% of patients, all from the "true" dnDSA group, which tended to align with shifts in cumulative MFI over time. Conclusion: These findings highlight the correlation between cumulative dnDSA MFI and dd-cfDNA levels, particularly in HLA-DQ-directed dnDSA, and suggest graft injury is dynamic in dnDSA-positive patients. Integrated monitoring of dnDSA and dd-cfDNA offers a promising non-invasive approach for assessing graft injury and alloimmunity, potentially enhancing post-transplant care.
