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

Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is featured with complex genomic alterations. Molecular profiling of large cohort of NSCLC patients is thus a prerequisite for precision medicine. We first validated the detection performance of a next-generation sequencing (NGS) cancer hotspot panel, OncoAim, on formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded (FFPE) samples. We then utilized OncoAim to delineate the genomic aberrations in Chinese NSCLC patients. Overall detection performance was powerful for mutations with allele frequency (MAF) ≥ 5% at >500 × coverage depth, with >99% sensitivity, high specificity (positive predictive value > 99%), 94% accuracy and 96% repeatability. Profiling 422 NSCLC FFPE samples revealed that patient characteristics, including gender, age, lymphatic spread, histologic grade and histologic subtype were significantly associated with the mutation incidence of EGFR and TP53. Moreover, RTK signaling pathway activation was enriched in adenocarcinoma, while PI(3)K pathway activation, oxidative stress pathway activation, and TP53 pathway inhibition were more prevalent in squamous cell carcinoma. Additionally, novel co-existence (e.g., variants in BRAF and PTEN) and mutual-exclusiveness (e.g., alterations in EGFR and NFE2L2) were found. Finally, we revealed distinct mutation spectrum in TP53, as well as a previously undervalued PTEN aberration. Our findings could aid in improving diagnosis, prognosis and personalized therapeutic decisions of Chinese NSCLC patients.
