Article in Dose-response : a publication of International Hormesis Society. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
backgroundCancer of unknown primary (CUP) is metastatic at diagnosis with an unknown primary site, indicating a high degree of malignancy with a poor prognosis. The development and application of targeted therapy and immunotherapy are current research hotspots, which provide additional treatment options for CUP. CASE PRESENTATION: A 36-year-old male presented with pain on the right hip in April 2018. After various examinations, he was diagnosed with CUP. This patient received chemotherapy, immunotherapy, and local radiotherapy in our department. However, the use of radiotherapy after immunotherapy resulted in severe pneumonia.
conclusionCompared with traditional treatments, immunotherapy is an effective treatment with fewer side effects and better patient tolerance. However, treating physicians should be still pay special attention to the occurrence of side effects when radiotherapy is combined with immunotherapy.
