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

Hepatoid adenocarcinoma of the lung (HAL) is an comparatively rare malignant tumor originating from the lung with shorter survival. HAL morphologically and pathologically exhibits hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC)-like characteristics, while its clinical features resemble pulmonary adenocarcinoma. High concentration of alpha-fetoprotein (AFP) is often detected in the serum of HAL patients with no hepatic occupying lesion. Patients with AFP-negative HAL survive a few months longer than those with positive AFP test. HAL is a rare type of carcinoma, so there is a lack of systematic and extensive statistical research. The treatment strategy for HAL is similar to common lung adenocarcinoma. Complete surgical resection and adjuvant chemotherapy are the current major treatments for HAL patients. There are also a few of case reports suggesting that HAL patients may benefit from immunotherapy and targeted therapy. This review focuses on the clinical and pathological features, immunohistochemical staining characteristics, treatment and prognosis of HAL.
