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

The number of patients with cancer qualifying for treatment with immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) continues to increase, and a clearer understanding of the mechanisms underlying their activity-driven side effects, or immune-related adverse events (irAEs), has become crucial. Patients receiving ICIs can develop irAEs in any organ, and numerous studies have suggested that irAE development may be associated with improved ICI efficacy. However, the robustness and magnitude of such associations are unclear, and little is known about the relationship between irAE development and ICI efficacy at the individual organ level. A precise understanding of these links could improve patient care and provide further insight into the immunological mechanisms underlying both irAE development and ICI efficacy. We herein review the prognostic implications of irAEs occurring in patients with cancer treated with ICIs and discuss outstanding issues that should be addressed in future studies.
