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

Despite tremendous progress in the last decade, lung adenocarcinoma still represents a tumor with unfavorable prognosis when detected at advanced clinical stage. High-stage tumors are not amenable to surgical resection, and therefore systemic therapies are needed to control these tumors to prolong patient survival. In the era of molecular and personalized therapeutics, the discovery of mutations in epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) in 15-20% of lung adenocarcinomas and the associated response to EGFR-targeting tyrosine kinase (TK) inhibitors have provided a successful avenue of attack in high-stage adenocarcinomas. In this review, we will provide an overview of the EGFR pathway, review the significant somatic EGFR alterations in lung adenocarcinoma and highlight their implications for treatment. In addition, we will examine pathways by which tumors resist EGFR TK therapy, both as primary nonresponders and by acquired resistance. In doing so, we will examine other oncogenic pathways whose status in tumor samples may impact therapeutic responses despite presence of activating EGFR mutations.
