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

Tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) of epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) are the standard treatment for lung cancer patients with activating EGFR mutation. The traditional direct polymerase chain reaction (PCR) has lower sensitivity in the detection of EGFR mutations in patient tissue samples. Whilst PCR amplification kits increase the sensitivity in detecting some types of EGFR mutations, not many types of rare mutations are found. Here, we report a patient who had lung adenocarcinoma harboring EGFR T751_I759delinsS mutation and had good response to afatinib initially and osimertinib after developing resistance to afatinib. This rare EGFR mutation was not detected by Scorpion and ARMS method but was found using the next-generation sequencing method. There are less prospective trials in the treatment of lung adenocarcinoma with very rare EGFR mutations. Our case report could therefore provide clinical experience to the clinicians in the management of their patients.
