Severe intestinal ischemia during chemotherapy for small cell lung cancer.
Article in Lung cancer management, 2017. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
Thromboembolic events (TEEs) are frequent in cancer patients, especially venous thrombosis. Arterial thrombosis is less frequent. Chemotherapy increases the risk of these TEEs. Although TEEs are often reported, intestinal ischemia is a rare complication in cancer patients treated with chemotherapy. Here we describe a rare case of a patient with small cell lung cancer, who developed intestinal ischemia during treatment with cisplatin-etoposide chemotherapy. Shock and multiple organ failure developed and an urgent laparotomy with total colectomy was necessary. This case and review of the literature show that overall arterial TEEs are not as infrequent and may rarely manifest as intestinal ischemia. A cardiovascular assessment before the start of anticancer therapy is therefore imperative for cancer patients.
