1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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 recent position paper of the European Society of Cardiology (ESC) on cardiovascular toxicity of cancer treatments has attracted considerable interest by healthcare professionals, since it is the first concrete help in the difficult task of monitoring and approaching cardiovascular side effects of anticancer treatments. The ESC expert opinion was not intended as a clinical practice guideline; however, it reports major cardiovascular complications grouped into nine categories, addressing current clinical strategies for prevention and mitigation. In this point of view, we discuss key challenges emerging from critical appraisal of the ESC position paper: (1) the wide spectrum of cardiovascular toxicities associated with oncological drugs, focusing on targeted agents, (2) managing strategies in patients with cardiac implantable devices, (3) the underappreciated (but emerging) immune-related cardiovascular toxicities of checkpoint inhibitors, which may also result in severe heart failure and fulminant myocarditis, (4) the evolving role of anticoagulation in oncology, and the evidence supporting (or not) the use of direct-acting oral anticoagulants in cancer-associated thrombosis.
