Advanced lung adenocarcinoma detected by choroidal metastasis in a patient with amyopathic dermatomyositis: A case report.
Article in Thoracic cancer, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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
A 63-year-old Japanese man with amyopathic dermatomyositis treated with immunosuppressants became aware of distortion of his left visual field, and a metastatic choroidal tumor was suspected. His chest computed tomography (CT) showed a pulmonary nodule in the right upper lobe and mediastinal lymphadenopathy, and he was diagnosed with advanced lung adenocarcinoma with choroidal metastasis. Malignancies associated with dermatomyositis (DM) are often rapidly progressive and, in choroidal metastasis associated with lung cancer, a choroidal lesion is often diagnosed prior to lung cancer; therefore, CT performed at the time of diagnosis of choroidal metastasis may show lung cancer lesions. When ocular symptoms are observed in DM patients, metastatic malignancies should be suspected, and systemic examinations, such as positron emission tomography (PET)-CT, should also be performed.
