SJS/TEN immune-related dermatologic reaction secondary to immune checkpoint inhibitor pembrolizumab in skin of color.
Article in Gynecologic oncology reports, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers.
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
Stevens-Johnson Syndrome (SJS) and toxic epidermal necrolysis (TEN) are rare but severe dermatologic immune-related adverse events (irAEs) characterized by the separation of the epidermal and dermal layers of the skin. Less commonly documented, these adverse events have shown to be secondary to immune checkpoint inhibitors such as anti-PD-1 monoclonal antibody pembrolizumab. We present the case of a 33-year-old African American female with a pertinent past medical history of history of recurrent progressive metastatic squamous cell carcinoma cervical cancer treated with pembrolizumab. The patient presented with symptoms of SJS/TEN four weeks after treatment with pembrolizumab was initiated. Intervention was delayed because the definitive diagnosis of an irAE was difficult due to time from initiation of treatment and obfuscated by intervening urosepsis episode treated with meropenem, and lack of literature illustrating SJS/TEN in patients of darker skin. From this case, we can learn the importance of immediate intervention in cases of irAE secondary to immune complex inhibitors and demonstrate the presentation of such a severe-life threatening condition in a patient of a darker skin tone.
