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 checkpoint inhibitor-associated myocarditis, myositis, and myasthenia gravis overlap syndrome (IM3OS) is an uncommon immune-related adverse event (irAE) associated with the use of immune checkpoint inhibitors for the treatment of malignancies. We present a case of a 77-year-old woman who received anti-PD1 treatment for high-grade invasive urothelial carcinoma, and subsequently presented with weakness, ptosis, and dysarthria concerning for myositis, myocarditis, and myasthenia gravis overlap syndrome. She was successfully treated with high-dose glucocorticoids, mycophenolate mofetil, and intravenous immunoglobulin with resolution of presenting symptoms. To identify cellular subsets that mediated the disease flare, we performed flow cytometry analysis of peripheral blood mononuclear cells collected at baseline, at hospitalization and after treatment with high-dose glucocorticoids. We found an expansion of the memory CD8
