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

opinion statementImmunotherapies have transformed the current landscape for cancer treatment and demonstrated unparalleled improvements in survival rates. Now, a third of cancer patients are eligible for treatment with the most widely used class of immunotherapy, immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs). As more patients are treated with these novel agents, it is critical for both oncologists and subspecialists to establish a better understanding of the adverse events which can occur. The incidence of myocarditis associated with ICI therapy has been reported to be between 0.27 and 1.14%, 5 times that of myocarditis from other cancer therapies, and, of those patients, 20-50% develop a fulminant form. However, because of unclear risk factors, a broad clinical spectrum, and lack of specific noninvasive studies for diagnosis, the care of patients with ICI-associated cardiotoxicity can be challenging. Here, we have provided a brief overview of the current immunotherapy agents with a focus on the emerging evidence regarding diagnosis and management of cardiac adverse events.
