Tumor Immune-Infiltrate Landscape After Chemo-Radiotherapy in a Case Series of Patients with Non-small Cell Lung Cancer: Pretreatment Predictors and Correlation With Outcome.

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
introductionData on tumor immune-milieu after chemo-radiation (CT-RT) are scarce. Noninvasive tools are needed to improve the treatment of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), especially in the locally advanced (LA) setting.
methodsWe collected a series of superior-sulcus (SS)- patients with NSCLC referred to our Institute (2015-2019), eligible for a preoperative CT-RT. We characterized tumor-infiltrating immune cells (TIICs), determined PD-L1-TPS and the residual viable tumor cells (RVTC). Radiological and metabolic responses were reviewed. We calculated pre-surgery neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) and platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio (PLR).
resultsEight patients were included. Radiological responses were 6 disease stabilities (SD) and 2 partial responses (PR). Metabolic responses were 4 SD and 4 PR. CD68+-TIICs were correlated with metabolic response and lower RVTC. CD68+-TIICs were associated with higher PLR. Higher PLR values seemed linked with lower RVTC.
conclusionsThese preliminary results could be useful for consolidation treatment selection for patients with LA-NSCLC without evaluable baseline PD-L1 and higher PLR values.
