Evaluation of current methods to detect the mutations of epidermal growth factor receptor in non-small cell lung cancer patients.
Article in Multidisciplinary respiratory medicine, 2012. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Many different methods were developed to detect commonly known mutations and to screen new mutations of the epidermal growth factor receptor in non-small cell lung cancer patients. Some of these methods are so sensitive as to be able to detect even one epidermal growth factor receptor mutant tumor cell among up to 1000-2000 normal cells. We have considered current methods chronologically reported to detect mutations in epidermal growth factor receptor in patients with non-small cell lung cancer. We also gave a short preview of their significance for routine clinical works. A Pub Med literature search was performed in order to demonstrate what methods are mostly used in mutation detection and to show their distribution through the last 10 years.
