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

purposeWe recently reported results of a phase II trial that camrelizumab plus apatinib induced an objective response rate (ORR) at 43.3% in advanced triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC). This study presents analysis of potential biomarkers.

methodsTILs, CD8

results28 Patients had biopsies and blood collected. Baseline TILs were significantly associated with longer PFS (P = 0.035). An increase of tumor-infiltrating CD8

conclusionHigher baseline TILs or a greater increase of tumor-infiltrating CD8
