Immune checkpoint inhibitor-induced myocarditis and myositis in liver cancer patients: 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
With the development of immunotherapy, immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) are widely used in clinical oncology and have achieved good results. ICIs could induce immune-related adverse events (irAEs) in cancer treatment, which warrant sufficient attention. Among them, immune myositis can manifest severe symptoms affecting the whole body, and immune myocarditis occurs with a low incidence but high fatality rate. Here we report a case of grade 3/4 adverse reactions in a patient with partial hepatectomy for malignancy after using ICIs and describe the clinical presentation, laboratory results, treatment, and prognosis. It emphasizes that clinicians should focus on being alert to irAEs in liver cancer patients who have received ICI therapy. The case we present is a 56-year-old male diagnosed with hepatocellular carcinoma. Right hepatic lobectomy was performed in April 2019. Postoperative follow-up showed that transcatheter arterial chemoembolization (TACE) combined with sorafenib (400 mg twice daily) failed to stop the recurrence of the tumor. In December 2020, the patient started to use Camrelizumab injections (200mg/injection every 21 days as a cycle). After 3 cycles, the patient had decreased muscle strength in both lower extremities with chest tightness, dyspnea, and expectoration (whitish sputum). The diagnosis was ICIs injection-induced immune myocarditis and myositis accompanied. The patient's condition improved considerably by steroid pulse therapy timely. The case emphasizes that clinicians should focus on being alert to irAEs in liver cancer patients who have received ICI therapy.
