Expression and Prognostic Significance of c-Myc, ALK, ROS1, BRAF, and PD-L1 Among Patients With Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer.

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.
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
Background: Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) remains a leading cause of cancer death worldwide, for which better knowledge in molecular prognostic factors is needed to improve clinical outcome. This study aimed to investigate the clinical significance of c-Myc, ALK, ROS1, BRAF, and PD-L1 in NSCLC patients. Methods: Formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded tissue specimens were obtained from 124 NSCLC patients. Of these, 66 matched specimens of normal respiratory epithelial and tumor tissue from patients with stages I-III, who underwent surgical resection, and 58 NSCLC specimens from stage IV patients were recruited into this analysis. Immunohistochemistry staining along with semiquantitative criteria were used to evaluate the expression of the interested proteins. Results: Of the 66 patients with stages I-III, positive expression of c-Myc was detected in 12 specimens (18.2%) of NSCLC tissue, whereas none of the normal respiratory epithelial tissue was found to have c-Myc expression ( Conclusions: NSCLC tissue significantly expressed more c-Myc and PD-L1, compared with the matched normal respiratory epithelium, emphasizing the important role of these key drivers in tumorigenesis. Therapeutic approach to precisely inhibit the targetable molecular pathways should be considered on an individual patient basis to improve survival outcome.
