Immunotherapy in stage IV non-small cell lung cancer in a patient with Grave's disease: safety and biomarkers of response.
Article in BMJ case reports, 2022. 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
Patients with cancer and pre-existing autoimmune diseases have been excluded from immunotherapy clinical trials. So, studying these patients who received immunotherapy is critical to increasing evidence of the treatment's safety and efficacy in this population. Furthermore, a complete and durable response to immunotherapy in metastatic non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is rare. Therefore, it is imperative to study patients with a complete response in order to identify potential predictors of response to immunotherapy. In this case report, we highlight a 62-year-old man with a smoking history and Graves' disease who achieved a complete response with immunotherapy for metastatic NSCLC, with a long-lasting response and no immune-related adverse events. Male gender, high programmed death-ligand 1 expression, current smokers, epidermal growth factor receptor and anaplastic lymphoma kinase wild types could be biomarkers of response to immune checkpoint inhibitors presented at baseline. Caution should be exercised when interpreting this finding because it represents our patient.
