Atezolizumab-associated Dermatomyositis in Advanced Small-cell Lung Carcinoma.
Article in Internal medicine (Tokyo, Japan), 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Dermatomyositis is a rare immune-related adverse event caused by immune checkpoint inhibitors. We herein report a 75-year-old Japanese man with small-cell lung carcinoma who developed dermatomyositis after the administration of atezolizumab. He developed rashes on day 13 and myalgia and motor weakness on day 30 of the first administration of atezolizumab. Anti-transcriptional intermediary factor 1-gamma antibody was positive, and serum interleukin-6 levels were prominently elevated in the acute phase. Symptoms were improved by corticosteroid therapy. This is the first report of dermatomyositis associated with atezolizumab. Clinicians should be aware of the possibility of dermatomyositis after the administration of immune checkpoint inhibitors.
