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

Innovative therapeutic agents have significantly improved outcome with an acceptable safety profile in a substantial proportion of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients, who depend on oncogenic molecular alterations for their malignant phenotype. Despite the survival improvement achieved with first-line chemotherapy, about 30% of patients do not obtain a tumor response. Moreover, those patients, initially sensitive to treatment, acquire resistance and develop tumor progression after a median of about 5 months. Approximately 60% of the patients progressing from first-line chemotherapy receive further systemic treatment in the second-line setting. Moreover, new options have emerged in the second-line armamentarium for the treatment of patients with NSCLC, including immune checkpoint inhibitors and antiangiogenic agents. The current review provides an overview on the clinical studies that gained the approval of chemotherapy agents (
