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 emergence of immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) have provided a new perspective for cancer immunotherapy. Immune checkpoint inhibitors significantly improve the survival prognosis of patients with various advanced cancers by inhibiting immune checkpoint molecules, thereby releasing the suppression of T cells by tumor microenvironment, such as cytotoxic T-lymphocyte-associated protein 4 (CTLA-4) and programmed cell death protein 1 (PD-1). Immune checkpoint inhibitor (ICI) therapy, while effective, gives rise to distinct immune-related adverse events (irAEs), including cardiovascular toxicities, necessitating focused research efforts to better understand and address these specific complications. The myocarditis-associated toxicity has been extensively studied. This article reviews the latest clinical and preclinical literature on the epidemiology and pathogenesis of ICI-related atherosclerosis, explores the pathophysiological mechanisms by which ICIs promote atherosclerosis, and discusses risk assessment, identification and monitoring methods, and intervention strategies for ICI treatment related atherosclerosis.
