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

introductionThe incidence of pneumonitis, a treatment-related adverse event (AE) in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients, has been studied in the United States mostly through clinical trials and retrospective chart reviews. Few analyses of real-world data have been published. This study of a large nationally representative health records database estimated the incidence and predictors of pneumonitis among treated NSCLC patients between 2008 and 2018.

methodsThe Optum

resultsThe cohort included 81,628 patients. Overall, 19.0% developed pneumonitis during any LOT, with a cumulative incidence of 33.7% and 17.0% for patients with a prior history of pneumonitis and those without, respectively. Univariate analyses revealed several factors associated with pneumonitis (p < 0.05). While factors varied between LOTs, common factors included male gender, squamous histology, history of diabetes or pneumonitis, EGFR-negative status, monotherapy immunomodulatory drugs, or history of radiation therapy. Multivariable competing risk regression showed that male gender, history of pneumonitis, EGFR-negative status, use of other targeted therapies, use of immunomodulatory drugs, and history of radiation therapy predicted pneumonitis.

conclusionPneumonitis is significantly associated with NSCLC treatment. Knowledge of its predictors identified in this study may help devise strategies to mitigate its impact, enhancing treatment adherence and improving outcomes.
