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

backgroundMET amplification or METex14 skipping mutations are uncommon oncogenic events in NSCLC patients. Clinicopathological characteristics, concurrent gene alterations, and prognosis of MET TKIs in these patients are yet to be elucidated.

methodsWe retrospectively analyzed the genomic profiles of 43 MET amplifications or 31 METex14 skipping mutations in NSCLC patients with no previous treatment with EGFR TKIs. Survival outcomes were analyzed in evaluable patients receiving MET TKI treatment: MET amplification cohort (n = 29) and METex14 skipping mutation cohort (n = 29).

resultsAmong evaluable patients, a shorter PFS was observed in the MET amplification cohort than in the METex14 skipping mutation cohort (7.0 months

conclusionMET TKIs could be a better treatment option for patients with METex14 skipping mutations. Concurrent mutations may deteriorate the PFS of MET TKIs in NSCLC patients with MET amplification or METex14 skipping mutations. PIK3CA mutations may confer primary resistance to MET TKIs in patients with MET amplification.
