P2Y12 inhibitors: do they increase cancer risk?
Review in Annals of translational medicine, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Treatment with dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT), typically combining a P2Y12 inhibitor with aspirin, is the standard of care for the prevention of coronary stent thrombosis, especially post revascularization and in the setting of acute coronary syndromes (ACS). Determining the appropriate duration has been debated as prolonged courses have been associated with reduced thrombotic complications. Despite proven benefit, there have been reports of a potential cancer risk associated with DAPT following the FDA's review of the TRITON-TIMI 38 trial and the DAPT trial. The latter revealed an increased risk of non-cardiovascular death, which was driven by more bleeding and cancer-related deaths. This further clouds the decision if longer courses of DAPT should be recommended. Several trials and meta-analyses have been conducted to further review this cancer risk with P2Y12 inhibitors. This manuscript intends to evaluate current literature to determine if there is a risk of cancer for patients on DAPT and its consequences in the management of cardiovascular disease.
