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

Expression of excision repair cross-complementation group 1 (ERCC1), p53, or thioredoxin (TRX) is reported to be correlated with resistance to platinum-based drugs. The authors evaluated whether ERCC1, p53, or TRX expression could predict progression-free and/or overall survival in relapsed non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients treated with platinum-based chemotherapy. Immunohistochemistry was used to examine the expression of these three proteins in resected lung tumor samples obtained from 67 patients treated with platinum-based chemotherapy against recurrent tumors after curative resection. Immunostaining for ERCC1, p53, and TRX was positive in 29, 35, and 24 patients, respectively. Patients negative for ERCC1 had a significantly longer median progression-free (44 vs 26 weeks, P = 0.0075) and overall (73 vs 44 weeks, P = 0.0006) survival than those positive for ERCC1. Patients negative for p53 expression had a significantly longer median overall (70 vs 62 weeks, P = 0.0289), but not progression-free (37.5 vs 36 weeks, P = 0.2465), survival than those positive for p53 expression. From multivariate analysis, negative ERCC1 expression (hazard ratio [HR] = 1.3740, P = 0.0147) was a significantly favorable factor for progression-free survival, and negative ERCC1 expression (HR = 1.6533, P = 0.0018) and better performance status (HR = 1.9117, P = 0.0017) were significantly favorable factors for overall survival. This retrospective study indicates that immunostaining for ERCC1 may be useful for predicting survival in NSCLC patients receiving platinum-based chemotherapy against recurrent tumors after curative resection and can provide critical information for planning personalized chemotherapy.
