Advanced pulmonary carcinoid managed with chemoimmunotherapy and antiangiogenic agent: A case report and literature review.
Article in Molecular and clinical oncology, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Pulmonary carcinoid (PC) tumors are rare, well-differentiated neuroendocrine neoplasms of the lung with indolent progression and limited therapeutic consensus in advanced stages. While surgery remains the mainstay for localized disease, optimal management strategies for progressive or unresectable cases remain debated. A case of a 56-year-old man diagnosed with a left upper lobe PC was presented. Initial treatment consisted of platinum-based chemotherapy followed by traditional Chinese medicine. Upon disease progression, he received thoracic radiotherapy, achieving transient stabilization. However, subsequent radiologic surveillance revealed enlargement of mediastinal lymph nodes, prompting the initiation of a triple-modality systemic regimen comprising lobaplatin, the PD-1 inhibitor sintilimab, and the antiangiogenic agent anlotinib. After two treatment cycles, follow-up imaging demonstrated marked lymph node regression with satisfactory tolerability. This case highlights the potential therapeutic value of integrating chemotherapy, immunotherapy and antiangiogenic therapy in advanced PCs, particularly when standard surgical approaches are unfeasible. Although randomized data remain scarce, experience suggests that multimodal systemic therapy may offer disease control in selected patients. Further prospective studies are warranted to refine treatment paradigms for this uncommon malignancy.
