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.
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
backgroundNivolumab is a programmed cell death 1 (PD-1) receptor inhibitor antibody that enhances immune system antitumor activity. It is associated with longer overall survival (OS) than the standard treatment of docetaxel in patients with previously treated advanced squamous (SQ) and non-squamous (non-SQ) non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). We previously conducted two phase II studies of nivolumab in Japanese patients with SQ (ONO-4538-05) and non-SQ (ONO-4538-06) NSCLC, showing overall response rates (ORRs) (95% CI) of 25.7% (14.2-42.1) and 22.4% (14.5-32.9), respectively, with acceptable toxicity. In this analysis, we more precisely estimated the long-term safety and efficacy in patients with SQ and non-SQ NSCLC by pooling data from these two trials.
methodsSQ (N = 35) and non-SQ (N = 76) NSCLC patients received nivolumab (3 mg/kg, every 2 weeks) until progression or discontinuation. OS was estimated using the Kaplan-Meier method. A pooled analysis of SQ and non-SQ patients was also performed.
resultsIn SQ NSCLC patients, the median OS (95% CI) was 16.3 months (12.4-25.2), and the estimated 1-year, 2-year, and 3-year survival rates were 71.4% (53.4-83.5), 37.1% (21.6-52.7), and 20.0% (8.8-34.4), respectively. In non-SQ NSCLC patients, median OS was 17.1 months (13.3-23.0), and the estimated 1-, 2-, and 3-year survival rates were 68.0% (56.2-77.3), 37.4% (26.5-48.1), and 31.9% (21.7-42.5), respectively. When SQ NSCLC and non-SQ NSCLC data were pooled, the median OS was 17.1 months (14.2-20.6), and the estimated 1-, 2-, and 3-year survival rates were 69.1% (59.6-76.8), 37.3% (28.3-46.2), and 28.1% (20.0-36.7), respectively. Twenty (76.9%) of 26 responders lived for 3 or more years. Nivolumab was well tolerated and no new safety signals were found.
conclusionTreatment with nivolumab improved long-term survival and was well tolerated in patients with SQ and non-SQ NSCLC.
