1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Abemaciclib (ABM) is recommended for adjuvant endocrine therapy in hormone receptor-positive, human epidermal growth factor receptor type 2-negative early breast cancer (EBC) patients at high risk of recurrence. Here, we present a case of radiation hepatitis challenging to differentiate from drug-induced liver injury during ABM treatment. The patient, a woman in her 40 s, underwent right mastectomy, axillary dissection, and postmastectomy radiation therapy (PMRT) after neoadjuvant chemotherapy for EBC. Subsequently, she received ABM as adjuvant endocrine therapy. Despite suspending ABM due to Grade 3 leukopenia, she developed Grade 3 hepatic dysfunction upon cessation. Based on the dynamic contrast-enhanced computed tomography, we diagnosed the cause of liver dysfunction as radiation hepatitis. Spontaneous improvement allowed us to resume ABM treatment. Clinicians may need to consider radiation hepatitis as a potential cause of hepatic dysfunction in patients who underwent PMRT, along with drug-induced liver injury.
