The incidence risk of programmed cell death-1/programmed cell death ligand 1 inhibitor-related alopecia for cancer patients: A systematic review and meta-analysis.
Synthesis in Medicine, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
purposeTo evaluate the incidence risk of programmed cell death-1/programmed cell death ligand 1 (PD-1/PD-L1) inhibitor-related alopecia for cancer patients, the meta-analysis was put into practice.
methodThe meta-analysis was designed and put into practice according to the preferred reporting items for systematic reviews and meta-analyses (PRISMA) guidelines.
resultsAfter rigorous screening and verification, 22 clinical trials involving PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitors were collected for the final comprehensive analysis. The incidence risk of alopecia for all-grade in the PD-1/PD-L1 group was significantly lower than that in the control chemotherapy group (odds ratio [OR] = 0.01, 95% confidence interval [CI]: [0.01, 0.04], I = 86%, Z = 8.73 [P < .00001]). Similar to the above, the incidence risk of alopecia for grade 3-5 related to PD-1/PD-L1 was obvious lower than the control group (OR = 0.17, 95% CI:[0.05, 0.55], I = 0%, Z = 2.97 [P = .003]). When 7 clinical trials (PD-1/PD-L1 + Chemotherapy vs Chemotherapy) were taken to evaluate the risk of alopecia for all-grade and grade 3-5, no statistically significant results were found.
conclusionThe incidence risk of alopecia caused by PD-1/PD-L1 is significantly lower than chemotherapy, and there is no statistical significant evidence that PD-1/PD-L1 combined with chemotherapy would increase the incidence risk of alopecia.
