Kidney Transplant Outcomes With Non-Depleting Antibody Induction Therapy in Human Leucocyte Antigen Sensitised Recipients.
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. 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
Lymphocyte depleting induction is recommended for kidney transplant recipients (KTRs) at high immunological risk, which traditionally includes those with detectable anti-human leucocyte antigen antibodies. Data to support this approach in the modern era of histocompatibility testing are limited. We investigated outcomes in KTRs who underwent Basiliximab induction between 2012-2023 in the UK. We stratified outcomes by levels of sensitisation and T cell epitope mismatch (PIRCHE-II) scores. 1348 KTRs were included; 859 (63.7%) were unsensitised, 351 (26.0%) sensitised (calculated reaction frequency [cRF] 1%-84%), and 138 (10.3%) highly sensitised (cRF 85%-100%). Patient survival, allograft survival, and death-censored graft survival (DCGS) were 97%, 94%, and 97% at 1 year, and 88%, 78%, and 84% at 5 years respectively. There were no differences in outcomes between unsensitised and sensitised recipients; graft survival was lower in highly sensitised patients. T cell epitope mismatch scores were higher in those with rejection at 1 year (ln[PIRCHE+1] 3.94 ± 1.01 no rejection vs. 4.25 ± 0.58 rejection, p = 0.02) and epitope mismatch was associated with early rejection in multivariable analyses (Odds Ratio 1.58, 95% CI 1.01-2.62). Hence, non-depleting induction provides good outcomes in unsensitised and sensitised KTRs. T cell epitope mismatches inform rejection risk in the first post-transplant year.
