Patients with Very High Risk of Cardiovascular Adverse Events during Carfilzomib Therapy: Prevention and Management of Events in a Single Center Experience.
Article in Cancers, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Carfilzomib (CFZ) improves the prognosis of multiple myeloma (MM) patients but has shown cardiovascular toxicity. The risk stratification of cardiovascular adverse events (CVAEs) now seems well established, while little is known about the course and management of patients with a high-cardiovascular-risk profile or experiencing CVAEs during therapy. Therefore, we aimed to describe our experience in decision making to support health professionals in selecting the best management strategies to prevent and treat CVAEs. A total of 194 patients with indication to CFZ underwent baseline evaluation of CVAEs risk and were prospectively followed. We propose a novel approach, which includes advanced cardiac imaging testing for patients at high baseline CV risk to rule out clinical conditions that could contraindicate starting CFZ. After baseline evaluation, 19 (9.8%) patients were found at high risk of CVAEs: 13 (6.7%) patients underwent advanced cardiac testing and 3 (1.5%) could not receive CFZ due to CV contraindications. A total of 178 (91.7%) patients started CFZ: 82 (46%) experienced arterial-hypertension-related events and 37 (20.8%) major CVAEs; 19 (10.7%) patients had to discontinue or modify the CFZ dosing regimen. Along with baseline risk stratification, subsequent cardiovascular clinical events and diagnostic follow-up both provided critical data to help identify conditions that could contraindicate the anticancer therapy.
