Updates on Donor-Derived Infection in Solid Organ Transplantation, Report from the 2024 GTI (Infection and Transplantation Group) Annual Meeting.
Article in Transplant international : official journal of the European Society for Organ Transplantation, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
The annual meeting of the French GTI (Transplantation and Infection Group) focused on donor-derived infections (DDIs) in solid organ transplant (SOT) recipients. Given the ongoing organ shortage, rigorous donor screening is essential to detect potential infectious risks. Donor evaluation should include medical history, travel, vaccination status, serologies, and exposures. Various pathogens are of concern, including viruses (HIV, hepatitis, BK polyomavirus), multidrug-resistant bacteria, fungi, and emerging arboviruses like West Nile virus and dengue. HIV-positive donor to HIV-positive recipient (D+/R+) transplantations are increasingly accepted, with promising outcomes. Hepatitis E (HEV) is now the most common viral hepatitis and may lead to chronic infection in SOT recipients, requiring ribavirin treatment. Non-Candida fungal infections, though rare, are associated with high mortality and demand early recognition. Climate change and globalization are expanding the range of vector-borne infections, necessitating seasonal and regional screening. BK polyomavirus remains a major complication in kidney transplant recipients, and monitoring viral load is critical. Bacterial infections from donors are uncommon but should be evaluated based on site, organism, resistance profile, and treatment history. Overall, maintaining safety in transplantation requires constant vigilance, updated knowledge, and personalized risk-benefit analysis to adapt to emerging infectious threats-especially amid ongoing organ scarcity.
