Onychopathy Induced by Nivolumab: A Targeted Immunotherapy.
Article in Cureus, 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
Nivolumab is a human immunoglobulin G4 (IgG4) monoclonal antibody that binds to the PD-1 receptor on T-cells and blocks its interaction with PD-L1 and PD-L2, releasing the PD-1 pathway-mediated inhibition of the immune response, including the anti-tumor immune response, resulting in decreased tumor growth. Here, we present a case of a 56-year-old lady with a diagnosis of squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) of the lip who presented with dystrophy of 20 nails, distal onycholysis, yellow-black discoloration of nail plates, painful paronychia with superimposed bacterial infection of big toes of both feet for three months. Few warty growths were also appreciated on big toes of both feet. She had undergone for her SCC 33 sessions of radiotherapy and 43 cycles of nivolumab 140mg for 60 minutes every two weeks. Following discontinuing this drug, the peri-ungual and nail bed inflammation improved, however nail plate dystrophy persisted. To our knowledge, the occurrence of nail dystrophy with nivolumab has never been reported before but it has been described with other targeted therapies.
