TL;DR: In conclusion, the risk for both AMR and graft loss directly correlates with peak HLA-DSA strength, which should help guide selection of acceptable grafts for sensitized patients.

Hyperacute Renal-Homograft Rejection in Man
TL;DR: Findings suggest that serum antibody reacted with and became fixed to the histocompatibility antigens of the graft, thereby initiating an acute vascular reaction with early polymorphonuclear-leukocyte margination and progression to widespread capillary thrombosis.

Shwartzman reaction after human renal homotransplantation

TL;DR: In three human recipients, five renal homografts were destroyed within a few minutes to hours after their revascularization in the new host, characteristic of a generalized Shwartzman reaction.

Serotyping for homotransplantation. X. Survival of 196 grafted kidneys subsequent to typing.
TL;DR: It is concluded that although survival in this series is associated with matching in marginal limits, many hazards which influence survival especially in the early 3 month period may be making it difficult to demonstrate the association.
