Lactic acidosis in a patient with cancer.
Article in Clinical medicine (London, England), 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
Lactic acidosis is commonly associated with tissue hypoperfusion and gives rise to concern regarding hypoxia or underlying hypotension. In the cancer patient, especially one undergoing chemotherapy, there is always concern for sepsis; however, in the otherwise clincially stable patient with cancer, type B lactic acidosis can also be related to their underlying malignancy. It is considered a haematological emergency given its high mortality rate. However, despite the urgency to treat type B lactic acidosis in these circumstances, treatment options beyond treatment of the malignancy are limited, and its presence portends a poor prognosis. This case highlights our current understanding of type B lactic acidosis and an approach to lactic acidosis evaluation in the cancer patient.
