Targeted Cancer Therapies and QT Interval Prolongation: Unveiling the Mechanisms Underlying Arrhythmic Complications and the Need for Risk Stratification Strategies.
Review in Clinical drug investigation, 2017. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers, 2 of them syntheses that pooled it.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
The care and treatment of cancer patients has significantly changed in the last decade with a remarkable shift towards novel targeted therapies. These promising new drugs may represent effective and potentially life-saving therapeutic options in cancer patients, but are also emerging in the cardiotoxicity scenario for their arrhythmogenic potential due to their QT-prolonging activity. In this article we review the mechanisms underlying drug-induced QT interval prolongation and the classes of anticancer-targeted therapies most frequently responsible for this adverse event, with a particular focus on tyrosine kinase-targeting molecules. Since up to 49 % of serious adverse drug reactions (ADRs) and 58 % of potentially fatal ADRs may not appear on initial drug safety labels, we also review and discuss data from the post-marketing VigiBase
