Outcomes for Patients With a Deceased Donor Kidney Offer in the New Allocation System.
Article in Kidney international reports, 2025. 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
Introduction: In the United States (US), disparities in access to kidney transplantation exist for waitlisted candidates with end-stage kidney disease. Meanwhile, changes in kidney allocation policy have been associated with a dramatic increase in the number of organ offers declined before an organ is successfully placed. Methods: We describe transplant and mortality rates for waitlisted candidates from 2015 to 2022 following these allocation changes. Results: Among 249,145 incident waitlisted adults, 180,039 received at least 1 offer and were included in the study. Of these, 37.7% received a deceased donor kidney allograft, 14.7% received a living donor allograft, 7.4% died while on the waiting list, 12.7% were removed, and 27.5% were still waitlisted by the study end period. Overall, candidates' median number of days to receiving their first offer declined from 20 (7-48) in 2015 to 5 (2-13) in 2022. Candidates who died while on the waiting list received a median of 25 (9-56) offers and candidates who were removed received a median of 22 (8-53) offers during the study period. The total number of offers generated by the match-run algorithm, including those from nonutilized kidneys, increased sharply from 7,911,688 offers in 2015 to 13,682,914 in 2019, and to 29,332,516 in 2022. Conclusion: These findings emphasize the inefficiencies inherent in our current allocation algorithms and the need to rethink how waitlisted patients are prioritized for a given deceased donor organ in order to maximize the probability of appropriate utilization of lifesaving organs .
