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

purposeCarboplatin (CBDCA) + nanoparticle albumin-bound paclitaxel (nab-PTX) is one of the most effective chemotherapeutic regimens for advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) treatment. However, neutropenia and neuropathy are well-known dose-limiting toxicities associated with this regimen, frequently resulting in treatment suspension and dose reduction. In the present study, we aimed to identify risk factors associated with CBDCA + nab-PTX treatment suspension.

methodsPatients with NSCLC who received CBDCA + nab-PTX ± atezolizumab or pembrolizumab regimens were retrospectively evaluated. The risk factor(s) for treatment suspension and primary causes underlying suspension during the first course were assessed; the relative dose intensity (RDI) was compared between patients with and without identified factors.

resultsThe frequency of treatment suspension was determined as 55%. The causes for suspension were neutropenia (65.2%), infection (24.2%), thrombocytopenia (6.1%), and other conditions. The calculated RDI was 98.5% for CBDCA and 79.3% for nab-PTX. Based on univariate and multivariate analyses, grade 1 or higher liver dysfunction was identified as a risk factor for treatment suspension. We determined primary causes for treatment suspension as neutropenia and/or infection, as they are closely related. Next, we evaluated associated factors and determined age ≥65 years and performance status (PS) 2 as potential factors, in addition to liver dysfunction.

conclusionWe observed that liver dysfunction at baseline is a risk factor for treatment suspension. In addition, age ≥65 years and PS 2 can result in treatment suspension owing to neutropenia and/or infection during CBDCA + nab-PTX treatment.
