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

Lung cancer is the leading cause of mortality among malignant diseases in humans worldwide. During the last decade, molecular targeted therapies for non-small cell lung cancer using first-generation, reversible epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs), including gefitinib, have been shown to be a promising approach for patients harboring activating mutations in EGFR. The current study reports a 77-year-old patient diagnosed with adenocarcinoma harboring L858R and T790M point mutations in the EGFR gene. The patient was treated with gefitinib as the second-line therapy, but no clinical benefit was observed. As the majority of patients with lung cancer receiving EGFR-TKI therapy acquire resistance, repeated biopsies and detection of the EGFR mutation state are beneficial for selecting appropriate treatments.
