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

objectiveTo carry out the meta-analysis on the relationship between the expression of nucleotide excision repair cross-complementary enzyme 1 (ERCC1) protein and platinum chemosensitivity in patients with advanced non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC).

methodsThe literature on the expression of ERCC1 and platinum chemosensitivity in patients with advanced NSCLC was searched in computer, which was published from January 2009 to August 2019 on the databases such as China Journal Full-text Database (CJFD), China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI), Wanfang Database, VIP, PubMed, EMBASE, and others. Stata 15.0 was used for statistical analysis, and ethnicity subgroup analysis was taken.

resultsFinally, 14 studies were included and 1337 patients were involved, of which 697 were ERCC1 positive, with a positive rate of 53.5%. The combined OR was 0.53 (95% CI: 0.30∼0.79;

conclusionThe sensitivity to platinum chemotherapy in patients with ERCC1 protein negative expression in the middle and late stages of NSCLC is better than that in patients with positive expression, especially in Asian population. There is no correlation in Caucasian population.
