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

backgroundThe therapeutic strategies and prognosis of local advanced and metastatic lung cancer have been extensively investigated. However, the prognosis of early-stage lung cancer patients undergoing radical surgery has not been fully studied due to the difficulties in follow-up and assessment.

methodsWe recruited 447 stage I-III lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) patients who underwent radical surgery and investigated the influence of main driver gene mutations and clinicopathological factors on patient overall survival (OS). Cancer tissue samples were collected retrospectively and mutational status and tumor mutational burden (TMB) were determined by whole-exome sequencing (WES).

resultsDistinct stage-dependent mutational frequency was revealed in main driver genes including
