Incidence and risk of hypertension with lenvatinib in treatment of solid tumors: An updated systematic review and meta-analysis.
Synthesis in Journal of clinical hypertension (Greenwich, Conn.), 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 papers, 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
This meta-analysis was performed to assess the relationship between Lenvatinib use for malignancy and hypertension (HTN). A total of 2483 patients met inclusion criteria. The relative risk (RR) for all-grade and high-grade (≧3) HTN were 2.61 (p ≦ .001) and 3.35 (p≦ .001), respectively, for Lenvatinib compared with other multitarget tyrosine kinase inhibitors or placebo. The cumulative incidence of all-grade and high-grade HTN was 70% and 34%, respectively. The studies with median treatment duration (TD) longer than 7.4 months demonstrated a higher incidence of high-grade HTN than studies with shorter TD (34% vs 28%). The incidence of all levels of HTN increased with TD (68% vs 49%). Trials with median progression-free survival (PFS) longer than nine months had a higher incidence of both all-grade (37% vs 28%) and high-grade (71% vs 48%) HTN. Lenvatinib, a drug commonly used in cancer treatment, is a risk factor for the development of HTN. A longer duration of Lenvatinib treatment was associated with higher frequency of HTN. Further investigation for Lenvatinib of the association between the occurrence of HTN and prognosis will be warranted.
