Standing the test of time in Europe? Gefitinib in the treatment of non-small-cell lung cancer.
Review in Lung Cancer (Auckland, N.Z.), 2010. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Lung cancer is the most common cancer worldwide, with 1.3 million new cases diagnosed every year. Non-small-cell lung carcinoma (NSCLC) has previously had a very poor prognosis with few effective therapies; however, research has identified that it is associated with a high rate of expression of epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) tyrosine kinase. This has led to discoveries in drug manipulation of this receptor, to provide effective new therapies against NSCLC. Gefitinib is a small molecule kinase inhibitor which inhibits the cytoplasmic domain of the EGFR; the evidence behind its use and future role is presented in this review.
