Core Tip This meta-analysis evaluates the impact of donor-specific antibodies (DSAs) on immune rejection following liver transplantation. While the presence of DSAs alone may not consistently predict rejection, quantitative measures - specifically high mean fluorescence intensity levels - are significantly correlated with increased rejection risk. These findings suggest that standardized, quantitative DSA monitoring, rather than simple qualitative detection, is essential for guiding personalized immunosuppressive protocols and optimizing long-term graft survival.
