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 (ICPis), such as pembrolizumab (Keytruda®), are associated with the development of several immune-related adverse events (irAEs). Thyroid dysfunction is a common endocrine irAE associated with pembrolizumab; however, Graves' disease induced by pembrolizumab is extremely rare. Few cases of this condition have been reported in the literature. Here, we report the case of a 50-year-old patient who presented with thyrotoxicosis that was attributed to Graves' disease secondary to pembrolizumab therapy.
