In this cohort, PLE was associated with AMR within the first-year post-HT, despite no significant difference in nDSA. Small patient numbers limited statistical comparison of nDSA in this cohort. PLE may be a risk factor for AMR post-HT, and the possibility of a clinically important DSA memory response remains. Larger studies are necessary to better understand these preliminary findings.
