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

The cisplatin and gemcitabine regimen is one of the most effective regimens against advanced non-small-cell lung cancer. However, tumors that are initially sensitive to chemotherapy treatment may acquire drug resistance. Excision repair cross complementation 1 gene (ERCC1) is involved in the repair of DNA damage caused by cisplatin, and ribonucleotide reductase M1 subunit (RRM1) is associated with gemcitabine resistance in tumor cells. The current study reports the case of a patient with advanced squamous cell lung carcinoma exhibiting low ERCC1 and RRM1 expression levels, who experienced long-term survival following repeated responses to gemcitabine and cisplatin chemotherapy. This case indicates that selected patients may benefit from multiple courses of gemcitabine and cisplatin chemotherapy, and the sustained clinical benefits suggest that further investigation into individualized therapy is merited.
