Desensitization in HLA-incompatible kidney transplant recipients: current strategies and emerging perspectives.
Review in Clinical kidney journal, 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
Despite development of kidney paired donation programs and prioritization in kidney allocation schemes, transplantation rates are still low and waiting times remain prolonged for highly sensitized kidney transplant recipients with broad human leukocyte antigen antibody reactivity. Desensitization confers an invaluable option improving access to kidney transplantation for sensitized patients who could not benefit from kidney paired donation programs and kidney allocation schemes. Conventional desensitization strategies use intravenous immunoglobulin combined with either plasmapheresis or monoclonal anti-CD20 antibodies. Imlifidase, IL-6 targeting agents, plasma cell-directed therapies, complement inhibitors, chimeric antigen receptor T-cell therapies, and B cell-activating factor inhibitors are emerging new options in the hope of enhancing and sustaining the efficacy of desensitization to improve allograft longevity. In this review, we discuss the rationale and outcome of desensitization with various strategies alone or in combination. Our aim is also to provide some insight for decision when pursuing desensitization might be successful or futile in sensitized patients.
