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 a leading cause of cancer-related death in China, with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) comprises the most common form. Co-inhibitory molecules, such as cytotoxic T-lymphocyte-associated protein 4 (CTLA-4), programmed death 1 (PD-1) and its ligand PD-L1, play a key roles in the physiopathological process of tumorigenesis. To investigate whether genetic variations of co-inhibitory molecules are associated with the risk of NSCLC, we analyzed polymorphisms of CTLA-4 (-318, +49), PD-1 (PD-1.1, PD-1.3, PD-1.5, PD-1.9) and PD-L1 (+8293) in a cohort of 528 NSCLC subjects and 600 healthy controls. By restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) method, we found that the distributions of the CTLA-4 and PD-1 gene polymorphisms were similar between NSCLC patients and healthy controls. However, for the PD-L1 8923 A/C polymorphism, frequencies of the AC genotype and C-allele were significantly higher in NSCLC patients than in healthy controls (odds ratio [OR] =1.55; 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.13-2.13; P=0.006; OR=1.52; 95% CI 1.14-2.04; P=0.004, respectively). Stratification analysis revealed that prevalence of the 8923C allele was significantly increased in NSCLC patients who smoke compared to those non-smoking patients (OR=1.51; 95% CI 1.00-2.28; P<0.05). Moreover, NSCLC patients carrying the C-allele had higher risk of regional lymph node metastasis than those carrying the A-allele (OR=5.65; 95% CI 2.45~13.03; P<0.001). These data suggest that PD-L1+8293A>C polymorphism may play a role in the development and progression of NSCLC.
