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

backgroundThe purpose of this study was to investigate the incidence of venous thromboembolism (VTE) in epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) mutations patients with lung adenocarcinoma, to provide clinical basis for the perioperative prevention and treatment of VTE in patients with lung cancer.

methodsThis study included patients with invasive lung adenocarcinoma confirmed by pathology from July 2016 to March 2018 after surgical pulmonectomy in Thoracic Surgery Department of Beijing Chaoyang Hospital. All enrolled patients were tested for relevant gene mutations. All patients were classified as adenocarcinoma subtypes by the 2011 International Association for the Study of Lung Cancer (IASLC), American Thoracic Society (ATS) and European Respiratory Society (ERS). Patients were divided into the VTE group and the control group according to whether VTE occurred postoperatively. Baseline data, gene test results, operative data and tumor pathology data between the two groups were compared.

resultsAccording to the inclusion criteria, a total of 323 patients underwent lung cancer surgery were analyzed in this study, including 148 males and 175 females, aged from 25 to 82 years old. Postoperative VTE occurred in 33 patients, with an incidence of 10.2%. Compared the baseline data, there were significant differences in age and BMI between the two groups, but no significant differences in other indicators. Comparing the results of postoperative genetic tests, the cases of exon 18, 19, 20, 21, 30, 31 mutation, exon 18 and 20 mixed mutation and exon 20 and 21 mixed mutation were 5, 42, 6, 57, 1, 3, 1 and 1. The total EGFR mutation rate in the enrolled patients was 36.2% (117/323). Among them, the proportion of EGFR mutation in the VTE group was significantly higher than that in the non-VTE group (60.6%

conclusionsThe incidence of VTE was 10.2% in patients with invasive lung adenocarcinoma without prophylactic anticoagulant therapy.
