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

objectiveTo discuss the application of ARMS method to detect EGFR gene mutation in cerebrospinal fluid of lung adenocarcinoma patients with meningeal metastasis.

methods5 cases of lung adenocarcinoma were identified with meningeal metastasis that were cleared EGFR gene mutation by gene sequencing method. From each patient 5ml cerebrospinal fluid was obtained by lumbar puncture. ARMS method was used to detect EGFR mutations in cerebrospinal fluid.

results5 samples of cerebrospinal fluid were successfully detected by ARMS method, 3 samples found that EGFR gene mutations, the mutations in line with direct sequencing method.

conclusionARMS method can be used to detect EGFR gene mutations of cerebrospinal fluid samples in lung adenocarcinoma with meningeal metastasis. But cerebrospinal fluid specimens from histological specimens, blood samples need to be confirmed by further comparative study whether there is advantage.
