Thromboembolism and Immune Checkpoint Blockade in Cancer Patients: An Old Foe for New Research.
Review in Targeted oncology, 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
Patients with cancer are at an increased risk of venous (VTE) and arterial thromboembolism (ATE), and thromboembolic events (TEs) represent the second-leading cause of death in cancer patients. The risk of cancer-associated thromboembolism is multifactorial. In addition to patient risk factors, anticancer treatments have been found to increase the risk of both VTE and ATE. Immune checkpoint blockade (ICB) has become a mainstay of treatment in various types of cancers. Their use is associated with the occurrence of a new spectrum of side effects called immune-related adverse events. Meta-analyses-including data from prospective and retrospective studies-and case reports both reported VTE and ATE as adverse events associated with ICB, with a cumulative incidence equaling around 3% and 1%, respectively. The exact mechanism underlying a TE after ICB use is currently unclear, as well as its associated risk factors. Considering their potential life-threatening impact, it is important for clinicians to be aware of the potential thrombotic complications, to educate patients and recognize early signs and symptoms of VTE and ATE, in order to allow prompt treatment (if needed) and avoid complications.
