Ramucirumab-induced ascites with endothelial growth factor receptor mutation-positive non-small cell lung cancer: Two case reports.
Article in Respirology case reports, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Ramucirumab (RAM) has been approved for the treatment of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Here, we report two cases of RAM-induced ascites with epidermal growth factor receptor-mutant NSCLC. Patient 1, a 72-year-old man, developed ascites 20 months after erlotinib (ERL) and RAM administration, which resolved after their discontinuation and performing paracentesis. Patient 2, an 83-year-old woman, developed ascites 9 months after ERL and RAM administration, which resolved after RAM discontinuation and furosemide administration. Ramucirumab administration can cause ascites due to increased hepatic sinusoidal pressure. Clinicians should be aware of RAM-induced ascites in patients with NSCLC and should appropriately manage it.
