The study groups are listed in the first column. For each group, distribution of dd-cfDNA at time of biopsy, at first test at 1 mo, and after 2–3 mo is given, along with the number of patients in each group with a dd-cfDNA measurement at that time point. Finally, a P value is given, showing whether dd-cfDNA exhibits a statistically significant change from time of biopsy to follow-up time for two different follow-up times: at 1 mo and at 2–3 mo. dd-cfDNA, donor-derived cell-free DNA; BPAR, biopsy–proven acute rejection; ABMR, antibody-mediated rejection; TCMR, T cell–mediated rejection.
