S-1 vs. paclitaxel plus carboplatin as adjuvant chemotherapy for completely resected stage II/IIIA non-small-cell lung cancer.
Article in Molecular and clinical oncology, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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
The majority of patients with completely resected stage II or IIIA non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) require adjuvant chemotherapy to improve survival following surgery. In the present trial, the 2-year disease-free survival (DFS), and the feasibility and safety of S-1 as an adjuvant chemotherapy for advanced lung cancer were evaluated. A total of 40 patients with completely resected stage II or IIIA NSCLC were enrolled and randomized to receive postoperative chemotherapy with either up to 4 cycles of paclitaxel plus carboplatin (arm A) or with up to 1 year of S-1 (arm B). The primary endpoint was 2-year DFS. The secondary endpoints were feasibility and toxicity. A total of 40 patients were enrolled, but 3 were excluded in accordance with the exclusion criteria. The remaining 37 patients were analyzed. The 2-year DFS rate was 54.2% in arm A and 84.2% in arm B. Overall, 15/18 (83.3%) patients completed 4 cycles of paclitaxel plus carboplatin and 13/19 (68.4%) completed 1-year of S-1adjuvant chemotherapy. Of the 18 (16.7%) patients in arm A, 3 experienced grade 3 or 4 adverse events, while none in arm B experienced such events. Therefore, S-1 chemotherapy for patients with completely resected stage II or IIIA NSCLC was a feasible and safe regimen, and it may therefore be considered as a potential adjuvant chemotherapy option for advanced NSCLC.
