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

A tissue biopsy is the "golden standard" for molecular profiling that is essential in decision-making regarding treatment for malignant tumors, including primary lung cancer. However, tumor biopsies are associated with several limitations, including invasiveness and difficulty in achieving access. Liquid biopsies have several potential advantages over tissue biopsies, and recent advances in molecular technologies have enabled liquid biopsies to be introduced into daily clinical practice. Cell-free blood-based liquid biopsies to detect mutations in the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) gene in the plasma have been approved and may be useful in selecting patients for treatment with tyrosine kinase inhibitors of EGFR. We herein describe blood-based liquid biopsies and review the current status and future perspectives of plasma genotyping in primary lung cancer.
