Successful treatment with docetaxel plus nintedanib in a patient with lung adenocarcinoma and pulmonary fibrosis: A case report and literature review.
Article in Frontiers in oncology, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Despite the rare incidence of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF), coexisting IPF and lung cancer is common. Both diseases have unfavorable outcomes and are often associated with impaired quality of life. In this study, we present a clinical case of a patient with coexisting IPF and lung adenocarcinoma who was successfully treated with nintedanib plus docetaxel as a second-line treatment, and achieved a substantial improvement in the quality of life. To our knowledge, very few cases in the literature address the concurrent treatment of both diseases, which makes this case a valuable illustration of a successful treatment strategy and a basis for future investigations.
