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

While the advent of immune-checkpoint inhibitors has revolutionized cancer therapy, immune-related adverse effects (irAEs) have also been on the rise. Cutaneous toxicities are among the most common irAEs, especially in the context of programmed cell death protein-1 (PD-1) inhibitors like pembrolizumab. Herein, we report a case of anti-PD-1-induced lichen planus pemphigoides (LPP)-a rare autoimmune blistering disorder with characteristics of both lichen planus and bullous pemphigoid. To our knowledge, this is the first reported case of LPP following anti-PD-1 therapy for metastatic adrenocortical cancer. Recognizing that LPP is within the spectrum of irAEs is important, especially as the indications for immunotherapy grow to include rarer malignancies like adrenocortical cancer. In addition to our case presentation, we also provide a comprehensive review of the literature surrounding immunotherapy-induced LPP-highlighting key characteristics towards the early recognition and clinical management of this cutaneous irAE.
