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

Pembrolizumab is an immune checkpoint inhibitor used in many cancer types, including genitourinary cancers. Although immunotherapies have dramatically changed the landscape of cancer treatment by providing an alternative to traditional chemotherapy, they have been associated with significant immune-related adverse events (IRAEs) with wide-ranging clinical manifestations. We present the case of an elderly woman on pembrolizumab for metastatic bladder cancer who developed cutaneous IRAE with lichenoid eruptions that responded to high-dose intravenous glucocorticoids.
