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

backgroundCasitas B-lineage lymphoma proto-oncogene-b (CBLB) influences the threshold of T cell activation and controlling peripheral T cell tolerance. In the present study, we hypothesize that potentially functional single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in CBLB are associated with clinical outcomes in patients advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) treated with the first-line chemotherapy.

methodsWe genotyped three SNPs (rs2305035, rs3772534 and rs9657904) at CBLB in 116 advanced NSCLC patients with progression free survival (PFS) data and 133 advanced NSCLC patients with overall survival (OS) data, and we assessed their associations, 95% confidence interval (CI), with clinical outcomes by using Cox proportional hazards regression analyses. In silico functional analysis was also performed for the SNPs under investigation.

resultsWe found that associations between the three SNPs and PFS/OS were not significant in the overall NSCLC patients. The rs2305035 AA genotype was associated with a worse PFS in female patients and those of non-smokers or light smokers (95% CI, 1.14-11.81, P=0.030; 95% CI, 1.42-10.24, P=0.008; and 95% CI, 1.39-9.93, P=0.009; respectively), compared with the GG+AA genotypes. We also found that the rs9657904 CC genotype was significantly associated with a worse OS than TT + TC genotypes in male advanced NSCLC patients. Further in silico functional analysis revealed that the rs965704 T allele was significantly associated with lower mRNA expression levels of the CBLB gene.

conclusionsOur findings identified two CBLB SNPs (rs2305035 and rs9657904) that were significantly associated with PFS and OS in several subgroups of Chinese advanced NSCLC patients after the first-line chemotherapy.
