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

The lung is the second most common site of neuroendocrine tumors (NETs). Typical and atypical carcinoids are low-grade NETs of the lung. These rare tumors have received little attention and education is needed for treating physicians. The article describes the classifcation of lung NETs, the epidemiology and pathological characteristics. When lung NETs are diagnosed at an early stage, surgical intervention is often curative. For advanced lung NETs patients, different treatment methods including chemotherapy, somatostatin analogs, m-TOR inhibition, peptide receptor radioligand therapy, and biologic systemic therapy are discussed. The conclusions are generally extrapolated from the outcome of extra-pulmonary carcinoids. Prospective randomized well-designed trials are urgently needed to inform current recommendations on systemic treatment.
