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 IASLC staging and Prognostic Factor Committee proposed new changes to the descriptors for the 8th edition of the Tumour Node Metastasis Staging for Lung Cancer. The T1 descriptor changes include (1) T1 tumours are subclassified into T1a (< 1 cm), T1b (> 1 to < 2 cm), T1c (> 2 to < 3 cm). The corresponding changes are introduced to the overall staging: T1aN0M0 = Stage IA1; T1bN0M0 = Stage IA2; T1cN0M0 = Stage IA3. (2) The introduction of the pathological entities Adenocarcinoma-In-Situ (AIS), Minimally Invasive Adenocarcinoma, and Lepidic Predominant Adenocarcinoma. The corresponding changes on the T descriptor are as follows: Adenocarcinoma-in situ is coded as Tis (AIS); Minimally Invasive Adenocarcinoma is coded as T1a(mi). In this review, the basis for these changes will be described, and the implications on clinical practice will be discussed.
