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

objectivesAccurate prognosis assessment across the heterogeneous population of brain metastases is very important, which may facilitate clinical decision-making and appropriate stratification of future clinical trials. Previous studies have shown the L1 Cell Adhesion Molecule (L1CAM) is potentially involved in human malignancies of multiple different samples and unfavorable survival. However, no data of L1CAM are available for the brain metastases from lung adenocarcinoma, especially for the one with neurosurgical resection.

methodThe authors investigated the L1CAM expression in cranial metastatic lesions for patients with brain metastases from lung adenocarcinoma after neurosurgical resection using tissue microarrays that were obtained from the Department of Neurosurgery at the Cancer Hospital of the Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences. Furthermore, the relationship between L1CAM expression and clinic-pathological parameters, including overall survival time, was analyzed to assess the prognostic value of L1CAM.

resultsL1CAM high expression was found in 62.30% of brain metastases from lung adenocarcinoma and significantly correlated with brain metastasis number (p = 0.028) and Lung-molGPA score (p = 0.042). Moreover, L1CAM expression was an independent predictor of survival for brain metastases after neurosurgical resection in a multivariate analysis. Patients with L1CAM high expression had unfavorable overall survival time (p = 0.016). In addition, the multivariate analysis also showed age and extracranial transfer were also the independent prognostic factors for this type of patient with brain metastases.

conclusionsA subset of brain metastases from lung adenocarcinoma aberrantly expresses L1CAM. L1CAM is a novel independent prognostic factor for brain metastasis from lung adenocarcinoma after neurosurgical resection.
