Frequencies of antibodies, defined by multiplexed bead assays, to mismatched HLA antigens were determined from 703 renal transplant patients who had no detectable donor-specific antibody before transplantation. The impact of patients having antigens in their phenotype that were cross-reactive with the mismatched antigen was also assessed. Adapted from Lucas et al. (80).
