In one paragraph

Review in Therapeutic advances in medical oncology, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT05854030 (A Study on Serum Exosomal miRNA Predicting the Effective and Prognosis of Immunotherapy Combined With Chemotherapy in Pulmonary Squamous Carcinoma), which is not on this map. Cited by 71 papers, 3 of them syntheses that pooled it.

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.

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.

Abstract

The treatment landscape for patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer has evolved greatly with the advent of immune checkpoint inhibitors. However, many patients do not derive benefit from checkpoint blockade, developing either primary or secondary resistance, highlighting a need for alternative approaches to modulate immune function. In this review, we highlight the absence of a common definition of primary and secondary resistance and summarize their frequency and clinical characteristics. Furthermore, we provide an overview of the biomarkers and mechanisms of resistance involving the tumor, the tumor microenvironment and the host, and suggest treatment strategies to overcome these mechanisms and improve clinical outcomes.
