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

(1) Background: Exploring real-world data (RWD) regarding immune-related adverse events (irAEs) is crucial to better understand the efficacy and safety of immunotherapy in cancer patient populations excluded from clinical trials. An analysis was conducted to evaluate the presumptive predictive causality between endocrine irAEs and the efficacy of immune check-point inhibitors (ICIs) in metastatic non-small-cell lung cancer (mNSCLC) patients treated in daily practice in Romania. (2) Methods: This was a retrospective cohort study of mNSCLC patients treated with ICIs in a tertiary level hospital in Romania for a period of almost seven years, from November 2017 till July 2024. Endocrine irAEs were well defined as any occurring autoimmune endocrinopathy during ICIs and related to immunotherapy. The hospital endocrinologist (M.C.C.O) diagnosed, treated, and followed these endocrine irAEs in a multidisciplinary approach. We investigated multiple medical variables to assess their impact on ICI effectiveness. Descriptive and statistical analyses were performed. (3) Results: Of 487 cancer patients treated with ICIs, we identified 215 mNSCLC patients who were evaluated for endocrine irAEs and co-medications during ICI therapy. Forty-seven (21.8%) patients experienced endocrine irAEs, thyroiditis being the most frequent and prevalent autoimmune endocrinopathy in 60% of cases. Endocrine irAEs were statistically significant, correlated with ICI efficacy (
