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

Primary Epstein-Barr-Virus (EBV)-associated pulmonary lymphoepithelioma-like carcinoma (LELC) is an aggressive rare cancer. Higher incidences have been observed in Asian sub-populations. Multimodal treatment paradigms have emerged as promising novel strategies in the management of advanced NSCLC. In this report, we describe the case of a 34-year-old female patient of Asian origin with a post-partum initial diagnosis of pulmonary LELC. Multimodal treatment with chemoimmunotherapy and hypofractionated irradiation to the primary tumour and main metastatic sites led to a favourable response demonstrating that radiotherapy may potentially augment anti-tumour immunity. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first case report on this novel therapy strategy of multi-site hypofractionated radiotherapy and chemoimmunotherapy for metastatic pulmonary EBV-associated LELC.
