nDFPP is inferior to cDFPP in removing IgG and IgM but can preserve more fibrinogen than cDFPP. A Changes in IgG, IgM, and fibrinogen in the first session in each group. B The changes of anti-blood group antibody titers pre- and post-initial DFPP (left two panels) and the drop in anti-blood group antibody titers (right panel) in each group. The drops in anti-blood group antibody titers in each first DFPP session were compared between the cDFPP and nDFPP groups. C Removal rates of IgG, IgM, and fibrinogen in the cDFPP and nDFPP groups demonstrating the improved removal selectivity of nDFPP compared with cDFPP. Blood sampling for analysis was performed immediately before and after the first session of cDFPP or nDFPP
