Influenza-induced thrombotic microangiopathy in a patient with cancer on proteasome inhibitor: a diagnostic dilemma.
Article in CEN case reports, 2022. 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
Thrombotic microangiopathy (TMA) in a cancer patient is a common complication of either cancer itself or anticancer therapy. Incidence of TMA from anticancer therapy was found to be > 15%, since the introduction of anti-angiogenic drugs like anti-vascular endothelial growth factor agents. It is, however, important to not ignore other causes of TMA such as bacteria, viruses, antiplatelet drugs, hereditary complement mutations, and autoimmune disorders. We present such a diagnostic dilemma in our patient who was admitted with influenza and was found to have TMA on renal biopsy, while on proteasome inhibitor (PI) therapy. With this case, we would like to highlight the importance of understanding the true cause of TMA to avoid unwarranted long-term discontinuation of life saving anti-cancer drugs after TMA resolution.
