Pembrolizumab-Induced Pancreatic Exocrine Insufficiency Complicated by Severe Hepatic Steatosis.
Article in Cureus, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
Anti-programmed death receptor-1 (anti-PD-1) monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) are used to treat an increasing range of cancers. However, the distinct toxicity profile of immune-related adverse events (irAEs) is a frequent drawback of their clinical application. Among the more common irAEs are hepatitis and colitis, which are diagnosed and graded in patients based on elevated serum liver enzyme levels and increased stool frequency, respectively, and both of which often require treatment with high-dose corticosteroids. Herein, we describe the case of a patient who developed severe transaminase elevation and diarrhoea due to an unusual irAE, which was successfully treated without corticosteroids.
