The Clinical Analysis of Checkpoint Inhibitor Pneumonitis with Different Severities in Lung Cancer Patients: A Retrospective Study.
Article in Journal of clinical medicine, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
Immune-related adverse events (irAEs) of immunotherapy would lead to the temporary or permanent discontinuation of immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs). Among them, checkpoint inhibitor pneumonitis (CIP) is a potentially life-threatening irAE. This study aimed to identify the differences between patients with low-grade CIPs (grades 1-2) and high-grade CIPs (grades 3-5) and to explore the prognostic factors. We retrospectively reviewed the medical records of 916 lung cancer patients who were treated with ICIs. Patients with CIPs were identified after multidisciplinary discussion, and their clinical, laboratory, radiological, and follow-up data were analyzed. Among the 74 enrolled CIP patients, there were 31 low-grade CIPs and 43 high-grade CIPs. Compared with low-grade CIP patients, patients with high-grade CIPs were older (65.8 years vs. 61.5 years) and had lower serum albumin (35.2 g/L vs. 37.9 g/L), higher D-dimer (5.1 mg/L vs. 1.7 mg/L), and more pulmonary infectious diseases (32.6% vs. 6.5%) during follow-up. In addition, complication with pulmonary infectious diseases, management with intravenous immunoglobulin, tocilizumab, and longer duration of large dosage corticosteroids might be associated with worse outcomes for patients with CIPs. This study highlights potential risk factors for high-grade CIP and poor prognosis among lung cancer patients who were treated with anti-cancer ICIs.
