Case report: Dissolving carotid plaque associated to Lorlatinib-related dyslipidemia.

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
We present a case with prolonged Lorlatinib-related dyslipidemia causing internal carotid artery stenosis, putting the patient at risk of cerebrovascular events. Through intensified lipid-lowering treatment and dose reduction of Lorlatinib, LDL-C levels decreased markedly. Surprisingly, the left sided internal carotid artery stenosis dissolved accordingly. Due to the high efficacy of the new selective tyrosine kinase inhibitors and resulting long-term treatment, it is essential to carefully follow-up and include drug specific side effect monitoring. This case emphasizes that Loraltinib-related dyslipidemia has to be taken seriously and treatment should be initiated as promptly as possible. We conclude that in cases were lipid dysregulation remains and Lorlatinib treatment has to be continued, cerebrovascular appraisal through ultrasound should be considered and, if stenosis is evident, intensified treatment regimen of dyslipidemia or dose reduction of Lorlatinib should be discussed in an interdisciplinary setting.
