Rare primary intrapulmonary malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumor showing significant response to sintilimab: A case report and literature review.
Article in Oncology letters, 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
Primary pulmonary malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumor (MPNST) is a rare soft tissue sarcoma with a low incidence, poor prognosis and limited treatment options. The present study reported a case of lung MPNST in a 63-year-old male patient without any pulmonary symptoms. Immunohistochemical analysis of the tumor indicated a programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-L1) expression tumor proportion score of 60%. A total of six courses of sintilimab were used in this patient and a remarkable response was achieved. In summary, sintilimab single-agent immunotherapy may be a novel treatment for pulmonary MPNST. When encountering analogous cases in the future, oncologists can test for the expression of PD-L1 in patients to guide the therapy's design.
