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

Worldwide, lung cancer remains the most common cause of cancer-related mortality, with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) accounting for 85% of all diagnosed lung cancer cases. Chemotherapy is considered the standard of care for patients with advanced NSCLC; however, the tumors can develop mechanisms that inactivate these drugs. Comparative genomic analyses have revealed that disruptions in the kelch-like ECH-associated protein 1 (Keap1)-nuclear factor erythroid-2-related factor-2 (Nrf2) pathway are frequent in NSCLC, although Nrf2 mutations occur less frequently than Keap1 mutations. As the Keap1-Nrf2 pathway appears to be a primary regulator of key cellular processes that aid to resist the action of chemotherapy drugs, the clinical implementation of Nrf2 inhibitors in patients with advanced NSCLC may be a useful therapeutic approach for patients harboring KEAP1-NRF2 mutations. The aim of the present review was to highlight findings of how constitutive Nrf2 activation may be a specific biomarker for predicting patients most likely to benefit from classical chemotherapy drugs, overall improving patient survival rate.
