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

Purpose: This study aimed to elaborate on the incidence, clinical features, and management of immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) related cardiovascular adverse events (CVAEs) in real-world practice. Patients and Methods: We performed a retrospective chart review study on patients receiving at least one dose of ICI therapy at a Chinese tertiary hospital from March 2020 to March 2021. CVAEs were identified through clinical assessment and the Naranjo algorithm. The management and outcomes of CVAEs were monitored over a median follow-up duration of 8 months. Results: Among the included 203 patients, 4.4% (9/203) developed CVAEs, including heart failure (n = 3), arrhythmia (n = 2), myocarditis (n = 2), and pericardial disease (n = 2), with a proportion (6/9) tending to be severe (grade 3 or grade 4). CVAEs were more common in older patients (mean age: 73.6 ± 9.2 years) and those with hypertension (p = 0.02) or heart failure (p = 0.01). Adherence to the American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO) guidelines for managing CVAEs was low (44%), with most cases showing partial resolution by the last follow-up. Conclusion: We reported that the incidence of ICI-related CVAEs in the Chinese institution was higher than that in some prior studies. Adherence to guidelines for managing ICI-related CVAEs is found to be suboptimal in real-world practice and highlighted as a needed improvement.
