Olaparib-induced cutaneous side effects in a patient with recurrent ovarian cancer.
Article in BMJ case reports, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Over the past decade, the treatment of ovarian cancer has been revolutionised by poly(ADP-ribose polymerase (PARP)) inhibitors. Based on the results from clinical trials, olaparib, a PARP inhibitor, is indicated for use in the first-line treatment for patients with BRCA gene mutations, and as a maintenance treatment in platinum-sensitive relapsed ovarian cancer after a complete or partial response to platinum-based chemotherapy. Although PARP inhibitors have been shown to be well tolerated, adverse side effects can affect the quality of life of patients and lead to the discontinuation of therapy. Here, we report a case of dermatosis of the left dorsal hand as a rare adverse side effect of olaparib. Dermatological adverse side effects may become the crux of a clinical problem that requires the cooperation of professionals in many fields.
