Paraneoplastic anti-TIF1-gamma-positive dermatomyositis as expression of cervical squamous cell carcinoma recurrence.
Article in BMJ case reports, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Idiopathic inflammatory myopathies are neuromuscular disorders characterised by muscle weakness and histologically inflammation within the muscle. Dermatomyositis and polymyositis are highly associated with a wide range of cancers, especially in antitranscriptional intermediary factor-1 (TIF1)-gamma-positive myositis. We present a case of paraneoplastic dermatomyositis in a patient with a medical history of a FIGO stage 1B1 cervical squamous cell carcinoma. Anti-TIF1-gamma autoantibodies were detected by myositis lineblot analysis and a PET-CT scan revealed an abnormality positioned at the right ovary. She underwent laparoscopic exploration and pathological analysis of the PET-positive abnormality showed a lymphogenic metastasis of a squamous cell carcinoma, competitive with cervical carcinoma recurrence. She started chemoradiation as curative oncological treatment. The dermatomyositis was successfully treated with high-dose corticosteroids. Physicians should be aware of the association between myositis and the increased risk of malignancies.
