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

Immune checkpoint inhibitor (ICI)-induced myocarditis is a potentially life-threatening adverse event. We herein report a rare case of sick sinus syndrome (SSS) co-occurring with ICI-associated myocarditis. A 71-year-old woman with lung cancer undergoing pembrolizumab monotherapy was admitted owing to a fever, worsening kidney function, and sinus bradycardia. She was diagnosed with multi-organ immune-related adverse events, including myocarditis. Pulse steroid therapy was initiated immediately under the support of a temporary pacemaker, which resulted in the resolution of SSS in a few days. Biopsy specimens of the endomyocardium showed active myocarditis. Thus, we should be aware that SSS can co-occur with ICI-induced myocarditis.
