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

Immune checkpoint inhibitors have revolutionized the treatments of cancers but are also associated with immune related adverse events that can interfere with their use. The types and severity of adverse events vary with checkpoint inhibitors. A single mechanism of pathogenesis has not emerged: postulated mechanisms involve direct effects of the checkpoint inhibitor, emergence of autoantibodies or autoreactive T cells, and destruction by toxic effects of activated T cells. Several host factors such as genotypes, preexisting autoimmune disease, inflammatory responses and others may have predictive value. Ongoing investigations seek to identify ways of modulating the autoimmunity without affecting the anti-tumor response with agents that are specific for the autoimmune mechanisms.
