Targeted therapies induced depigmentation: a review.
Review in Frontiers in immunology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Skin depigmentation or vitiligo-like depigmentation (VLD) is one of the most prevalent cutaneous adverse events during targeted therapies for cancers or autoimmune diseases. The depigmentation is usually with high mental burden and affect the disease treatment, some of which are even clinical markers for good prognosis. This study aimed to explore the underlying immunopathologic mechanisms of VLD induced by targeted therapy for cancer and autoimmune disease as well as vaccine, such as immune checkpoint inhibitors (e.g., programmed death 1/programmed death-ligand 1 and cytotoxic T-lymphocyte antigen-4 inhibitors), v-raf murine sarcoma viral oncogene homolog inhibitors, tyrosine kinase inhibitors, and other targeted agents. Additionally, it examined the clinical presentations, prognostic implications, and management strategies for VLD across oncologic and nononcologic contexts, including cases associated with vaccines and biologics. The development of VLD often correlates with improved therapeutic outcomes, but it presents unique challenges in balancing antitumor efficacy with patients' quality of life. This review integrated insights from oncology, dermatology, and immunology, and underscored the need for multidisciplinary approaches to enhance the understanding, prevention, and management of these complex cutaneous adverse events.
