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

A 69-year-old man who was a former plumber with a history of occupational asbestos exposure was diagnosed with unresectable pleural mesothelioma. Six months after initiation of combination therapy with ipilimumab and nivolumab, he presented with an altered level of consciousness and extrapyramidal symptoms and was diagnosed with immune-related encephalitis. Although high-dose corticosteroid therapy and intravenous immunoglobulin led to partial improvement in his level of consciousness, the response was limited. Immune-related encephalitis is rare, especially in association with pleural mesothelioma. Optimal management of the condition needs to be established.
