Rare paraneoplastic syndromes in digestive systems caused by lung cancer.
Article in BMJ case reports, 2021. 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
We observed a rare case of two different digestive paraneoplastic syndromes that improved with the treatment of the neoplasms. The first syndrome was chronic intestinal pseudo-obstruction (CIPO), which is a subtype of paraneoplastic syndromes called a paraneoplastic neurological syndrome (PNS). The second was Stauffer's syndrome, which is a unique paraneoplastic syndrome characterised by non-metastatic intrahepatic cholestasis associated with neoplasms. Here, we report the case of a 55-year-old man who presented with two concurrent paraneoplastic syndromes in the digestive system. The intestinal pseudo-obstruction and elevated biliary enzyme levels improved as the lung cancer responded to chemotherapy. In this case, CIPO as a PNS led to the detection of lung cancer. To our knowledge, this is the first report of Stauffer's syndrome caused by lung adenocarcinoma.
