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

Background: Lung cancer can result in malignant pericardial effusion (MPE), impacting patient prognosis. Intrapericardial infusion of bevacizumab was an alternative treatment for MPE. Case presentation: We present the case of a 48-year-old female with stage IV lung adenocarcinoma and MPE. MPE was managed by intrapericardial infusion of bevacizumab. The first intrapericardial infusion of bevacizumab effectively controlled the MPE for 8 months. Cardiotoxicity quickly emerged after the second intrapericardial infusion of bevacizumab. After intensive treatment, the symptoms of cardiotoxicity resolved within 10 days. Conclusion: The present case indicates that intrapericardial infusion of bevacizumab could lead to cardiotoxicity in MPE patient. Cardiac examinations should be conducted before and after anti-vascular endothelial growth factor treatment.
