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

Pazopanib, a multityrosine kinase inhibitor used for treating malignant soft tissue tumors, rarely causes adverse events associated with the respiratory system. We report a case of a 73-year-old male with leiomyosarcoma treated with pazopanib. Four months after treatment initiation, chest computed tomography showed bilateral patchy consolidation and ground-glass opacities. Bronchoscopy revealed increased lymphocytes in the bronchoalveolar lavage fluid. Histological analysis of lung tissue demonstrated intraluminal fibrotic changes in alveolar spaces. According to these findings, we diagnosed the patient with pazopanib-induced organizing pneumonia. To best of our knowledge, this is the first report of such a case.
