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

backgroundA number of studies have reported hyperprogressive disease (HPD) in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) after treatment with immune checkpoint inhibitor (ICI). This study aimed to summarize the incidence and survival outcome of HPD in NSCLC and identify the clinicopathological features associated with HPD based on available eligible studies.

methodsFour databases (Medline/PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, and Cochrane Library) were searched for eligible studies on HPD published before January 23, 2020, to evaluate the incidence, outcome, and clinical features of HPD. Statistical analyses were performed using STATA 15.0. All meta-analyses were performed based on the random-effects model.

resultsThis study included 6 studies involving 1389 patients. The incidence of HPD ranged from 8.02 to 30.43%. Compared with patients with non-HPD, those with HPD were associated with worse overall survival. We identified that Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group > 1, Royal Marsden Hospital score ≥ 2, serum lactate dehydrogenase > upper limit of normal, the number of metastasis sites > 2, and liver metastasis were associated with the risk of HPD.

conclusionsThis study summarized the clinical features of HPD in NSCLC patients. The meta-analysis showed that five pre-treatment clinicopathological features might be associated with HPD, which may help in selecting patients for ICIs.
