A paraneoplastic syndrome exacerbated by checkpoint inhibition therapy.
Article in Proceedings (Baylor University. Medical Center), 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Polymyalgia rheumatica is a disease characterized by systemic inflammation of the proximal muscles and pain in the hips and shoulders, but when this disease occurs contemporaneously with malignancy, there is a possibility of it being a paraneoplastic syndrome. With the advent of immunotherapies to treat various cancers, immune-related adverse events from these therapies are recognized as de novo findings or as flares of an underlying existing rheumatic disease. In this report, we present a case of polymyalgia rheumatica presenting as a paraneoplastic syndrome that was exacerbated during therapy with immune checkpoint inhibitors for recurrent melanoma.
