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

Leptomeningeal metastasis (LM) is one of the disastrous events in managing advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) due to severe clinical symptoms and a grave prognosis. Although intrathecal (IT) chemotherapy show some effects for LM in advanced NSCLC, the prognosis is still poor (12 wk-14 wk). A large majority (84%-97%) of the patients were found to have adenocarcinoma histology. Epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) senstive mutations were detected in 43.0%-70.5% adenocarcinoma patients with LM. EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) showed to be effective for LM in selected NSCLC patients in some reseaches, and confer a survival benefit. Furthermore, future trials need be done to determine the effect of EGFR-TKIs treatment in NSCLC-LM patients.
