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

background and purposeWe investigated the incidence and dose-volume relationships of radiation pneumonitis (RP) after concurrent chemoradiotherapy (CCRT) followed by durvalumab for locally advanced non-small-cell lung cancer (LA-NSCLC). MATERIALS AND

methodsWe retrospectively analyzed records of 36 patients with LA-NSCLC who underwent CCRT followed by durvalumab. Incidence of RP was analyzed for correlations with clinical factors and dose-volume parameters of lung in radiotherapy.

resultsAll patients received 60 Gy in 30 fractions of radiotherapy with concurrent chemotherapy. Over a median follow-up period of 7 months, incidence of grade ≥2 RP was 36% (including grade 3 RP: 5% and grade 5 RP: 3%). Age, sex, Brinkman index, and blood test results did not significantly differ between patients with grade ≥2 RP and grade ≤1 RP. Dose-volume parameters (lung volumes that received 5 Gy, 10 Gy, 20 Gy, 30 Gy, 40 Gy, 50 Gy, and mean lung dose) were significantly higher among patients with grade ≥2 RP compared with patients with grade ≤1 RP.

conclusionIncidence of grade ≥2 RP was 36% after CCRT followed by durvalumab for LA-NSCLC, but did not significantly differ from those of patients treated with CCRT alone. Lung dose-volume parameters were significantly correlated with RP.
