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

Immune-related adverse events (irAEs), including endocrine irAEs, can occur in response to cancer immunotherapy using immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs). Of the endocrine irAEs, pituitary and thyroid irAEs are most frequently observed, followed by primary adrenal insufficiency, type 1 diabetes mellitus and hypoparathyroidism. Notably, pituitary irAEs and type 1 diabetes mellitus can be lethal if overlooked, potentially leading to adrenal crisis and diabetic ketoacidosis, respectively. On the other hand, pituitary and thyroid irAEs are reported to be associated with more favourable prognoses in some cancers if treated appropriately with hormone-replacement therapies. It would be useful to identify those people who are likely to develop endocrine irAEs before initiating therapy with ICIs. Anti-pituitary antibodies and thyroid autoantibodies have been identified as potential biomarkers for the development of pituitary and thyroid irAEs, respectively. This Review elaborates on the clinical characteristics and management strategies of several endocrine irAEs, using the latest research findings and guidelines published by several academic societies.
