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.
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
Platinum agents induce cancer cell death through BCL2-dependent intrinsic apoptotic pathway and are commonly used as anti-tumor drug. In this study, we evaluated whether single nucleotide polymorphism (SNPs) of BCL2 can affect the overall survival (OS) and progression-free survival (PFS) in non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients treated with platinum-based chemotherapy. We genotyped 48 SNPs of BCL2 gene by Illumina Custom Designed Chip in 972 advanced NSCLC patients treated with platinum-based chemotherapy. We evaluated the relationship between genotype/haplotype/diplotype and OS/PFS by COX regression analysis. As a result, five SNPs, rs949037, rs3810027, rs4987739, rs4987726 and rs7226979, were significantly associated with overall survival time in 972 NSCLC patients after platinum-based chemotherapy. rs1381547 and rs8083946 were associated with progression-free survival. As representative, the G allele of rs949037 was associated with longer OS in NSCLC patients with platinum-based chemotherapy. Patients with GG or AG genotype showed a 19.9 months mOS vs AA genotype 14.2 months mOS (HR: 1.38, 95% CI: 1.11-1.72, p=0.004). In further analysis, rs949037 was found to predominantly contribute to the OS of patients with platinum-tubulin-targeting drugs, moreover, the GG genotype of rs949037 showed an 8.5 months longer OS compared with the unfavorable AA genotype (mOS: 21.36 vs 12.83, HR=0.70, 95% CI: 0.52-0.94, p=0.000). To conclude, polymorphisms of BCL2 gene may have an impact on the OS of platinum-based chemotherapy in NSCLC patients, which may be prognostic biomarkers of chemotherapy if validated in larger studies.
