1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

backgroundThis study aimed to investigate the long-term clinical outcomes of ABO-incompatible kidney transplantation (ABO icKT) in patients with high baseline anti-A/B antibody titers.

methodsThis study included 271 cases of ABO icKT. Of these, 42 patients with a baseline antibody titer of ≥ 1:256 were assigned to the high-titer group, while the remaining 229 patients were categorized into the low-titer group. We compared the groups regarding the number of required pre-transplant plasmapheresis (PP) and intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIG) sessions. Clinical outcomes included post-operative bleeding, biopsy-proven acute rejection (BPAR), infectious complications, changes in allograft function, and long-term allograft and patient survival.

resultsThe high-titer group required significantly more sessions of PP and IVIG than the low-titer group (8.74 ± 2.68 vs. 3.85 ± 1.64;

conclusionPatients with high baseline anti-A/B titers demonstrated comparable short-term and long-term patient and allograft outcomes to those in the low-titer group.
