MOSTLY FALSE
There is real research on making kidneys more ABO-compatible, including enzymatic work and early human testing, but not a proven universal artificial kidney that works with any blood type. The post greatly overstates the maturity and scope of the science.
The image is a generic concept-style medical graphic, not evidence of a real device. The check relies on publicly available research and transplant guidance; if the post is referring to a very recent unpublished study, that would need separate verification.
[c] MOSTLY_FALSE — There’s promising research on making kidneys more blood-type compatible, but no evidence yet of a universally compatible artificial kidney in routine use. The post overstates early experimental work as a finished breakthrough. [perclaim.com/v/ck_c0i8lkzo]

“Scientists Create Artificial Kidneys That Are Universally Compatible With Any Blood Type”
VISUAL CONTENT
Two pink, faceted kidney-shaped objects are shown facing each other on a reflective surface in a blurred laboratory-like setting. The design looks like a stock or concept image rather than a real device photo.
Scientists have created artificial kidneys that are universally compatible with any blood type.
Publicly available research supports early progress on reducing blood-type barriers, including enzymatic conversion experiments and a first human transplant of a modified kidney. But that is not the same as a demonstrated, universally compatible artificial kidney available for any blood type.
