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

Oligometastatic non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) has a poor prognosis for rural patients with traditional therapies. Implementation of multi-modality systemic therapy in conjunction with surgical resection can dramatically improve overall survival, leading to clinical complete remission. The currently accepted indications for resection in oligometastatic NSCLC include brain and adrenal metastases. Rural populations are known to have disparities in care of complex malignancies and the use of telehealth has been shown to improve outcomes. We present a case of a rural patient with stage IV NSCLC, who was able to participate in two clinical trials, undergo trimodality therapy, and remain disease-free for 18 months, whose care was facilitated via telehealth video conferencing with a tertiary care center.
