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

opinion statementIsolation and analysis of circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) have emerged as an effective and promising tool for genomic profiling in non-small cell lung cancer. Analysis of ctDNA can be particularly useful in situations where tissue biopsy is not safely obtainable due to poor physical condition or inaccessible tumor biopsy location. In addition to identifying oncogenic driver mutations which can be treated with targetable therapy in the treatment naïve advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) setting, ctDNA is being utilized in novel ways including monitoring during an advanced NSCLC patient's treatment course (real-time monitoring), determining mechanisms of resistance and, lastly, as a tool to identify minimal residual disease in early-stage NSCLC. Recent research demonstrates that ctDNA testing can provide a useful adjunct to tissue genotyping in NSCLC. Utilization of ctDNA into routine clinical practice for NSCLC should be strongly considered.
