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

backgroundPrevious studies have shown that combining immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) with talimogene laherparepvec (TVEC) may improve antitumor responses. However, the risk of developing cutaneous immune-related adverse events (cirAEs) in patients treated with ICI and TVEC has not been studied.

objectiveTo evaluate the differences in cirAE development between patients treated with ICI alone and both ICI and TVEC (ICI + TVEC).

methodsPatients with cutaneous malignancy receiving ICI with or without TVEC therapy at the Massachusetts General Brigham healthcare system were included. CirAE development, time from ICI initiation to cirAE, cirAE grade, cirAE morphology, and survival were analyzed. Pearson's χ

resultsThe rate of cirAE development was 32.3% and 38.7% for ICI only and ICI + TVEC, respectively. After adjusting for covariates, ICI + TVEC was associated with a 2-fold increased risk of cirAE development (hazard ratio: 2.03, P = .006) compared to patients receiving ICI therapy alone. LIMITATIONS: The retrospective nature and limited sample size from a tertiary-level academic center.

conclusionThese findings underscore potential opportunities for dermatologists and oncologists in counseling and monitoring patients.
