ABO incompatible LRD kidney transplantation should be offered to children: results from a 33-year comparative OPTN study.

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
ABOi transplantation is a growing practice with excellent clinical outcomes. Some paediatric transplant programmes are reluctant to offer ABOi transplantation and list children on a DD waiting list. However, there are no studies directly comparing the outcomes between pediatric ABOi LD kidney transplants (LDKTx) and ABOc DD transplants (DDKTx). Data were retrieved on all pediatric kidney transplants from 1987-2020, from the United Network for Organ Sharing. Propensity score matching was used to select a control group of ABOc transplant recipients. Long term outcomes were compared between ABOi and ABOc kidney transplants and between ABOi LDKTx and ABOc DDKTx. Data were compared using chi-square test, t-test and Kaplan-Meier survival analysis. Overall, there were 70 pediatric ABOi kidney transplants meeting the study criteria. There was no significant difference in allograft (p = 0.42) and patient survival (p = 0.58) between ABOi and ABOc transplants. ABOi LDKTx had significantly lower incidence of delayed allograft function and better long-term allograft survival than ABOc DDKTx (p < 0.01, p = 0.01). ABOi transplantation has excellent long-term outcomes. ABOi LDKTx lead to better long-term outcomes than ABOc DDKTx. We recommend that ABOi transplantation from a LD should be considered prior to listing children for transplantation from a DD.
