Article in Innere Medizin (Heidelberg, Germany), 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
Paraneoplastic leukocytosis in solid tumors is associated with poor prognosis. While mild leukocytosis is common, paraneoplastic hyperleukocytosis is extremely rare. The case of a 73-year-old male diagnosed with an adenocarcinoma of the lung and a peak white blood cell count of 178,000/µl is reported. The patient succumbed to the disease after two cycles of immunochemotherapy only 2 months after first hospital admission. Specific treatment options are still under investigation and have not been reported in clinical use.
