A case of Avelumab response to multiple bone and lymph node metastases of plasmacytoid variant bladder cancer.
Article in Urology case reports, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
A 74-year-old man was diagnosed with bladder cancer and referred to our department. For definitive diagnosis, transurethral resection of the bladder tumor(TURBT) was performed. The pathological result showed plasmacytoid variant of urothelial carcinoma. Subsequently, robot-assisted radical cystectomy, lymph node dissection and ileal conduit was performed, but multiple bone metastases and periaortic lymph node metastases newly appeared 30 days later. Gemcitabine and cisplatin (GC) was started, and after 4 courses, the patient became Partial Response (PR), and was switched to Avelumab as maintenance therapy. After about 1 year of maintenance therapy, the patient is still in PR.
