Nivolumab-Induced Colitis in a Patient With Esophageal Adenocarcinoma: A Case Report.
Article in Cureus, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Nivolumab is an immune checkpoint inhibitor used in the treatment of several types of cancer. Among the adverse effects of this drug, immune-mediated colitis (IMC) has been described. However, in contrast to other checkpoint inhibitors, such as ipilimumab, drug-induced colitis due to nivolumab is not commonly reported. We report the case of a 59-year-old male who had undergone surgical resection for gastroesophageal junction adenocarcinoma, had been on nivolumab during the past five months, and presented with worsening diarrhea. Colonoscopy demonstrated local edema and mild colitis in a region of the colonic mucosa located 30 cm distal to the ileocecal valve. Biopsies revealed acute moderate colitis. The patient responded well to loperamide and dietary modifications. Although nivolumab rarely causes IMC, this occurrence requires proper management in order to avoid further complications.
