Anaplastic thyroid carcinoma transformation in a patient with advanced non-small cell lung cancer treated with PD-1 therapy: A case report.
Article in Respiratory medicine case reports, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
There have rarely been reports on the neoplastic transformation in other organs during immunotherapy for lung cancer. We report the case of a 71-year-old man who was diagnosed with advanced pulmonary adenocarcinoma and a thyroid tumor. The patient responded to chemoradiotherapy but developed a recurrence of pulmonary metastasis. Therefore, nivolumab was started, and a complete response for pulmonary metastasis was achieved. After 32 nivolumab cycles, he experienced neck pain, and the thyroid tumor grew rapidly. Histological examination revealed anaplastic thyroid carcinoma. Although rare, immunotherapy for lung cancer has the potential to induce neoplastic transformation in other organs.
