1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Immune checkpoint inhibitors, namely anti-CTLA-4, anti-PD-1 and anti-PD-L1 monoclonal antibodies, have emerged in the last decade as a novel form of cancer treatment, promoting increased survival in patients. As they tamper with the immune response in order to destroy malignant cells, a new type of adverse reactions has emerged, known as immune-related adverse events (irAEs), which frequently target the endocrine system, especially the thyroid and hypophysis. Thyroid irAEs include hyperthyroidism, thyrotoxicosis, hypothyroidism and a possibly life-threatening condition known as the "thyroid storm". Early prediction of occurrence and detection of the thyroid irAEs should be a priority for the clinician, in order to avoid critical situations. Moreover, they are recently considered both a prognostic marker and a means of overseeing treatment response, since they indicate an efficient activation of the immune system. Therefore, a multidisciplinary approach including both oncologists and endocrinologists is recommended when immune checkpoint inhibitors are used in the clinic.
