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

Background: NRAS wildtype melanoma accounts for approximately 80% of melanomas. Previous studies have shown that NRAS wildtype melanoma had higher response rates and better prognoses than NRAS-mutant patients following immunotherapy, while as major actors in tumor cells and tumor microenvironment (TME), the association between NOTCH family genes and response to immunotherapy in NRAS wildtype melanoma remains indistinct. Objective: We aim to explore whether NOTCH family gene variation is associated with genomic factors in immune checkpoint inhibitor (ICI) response in NRAS wildtype melanoma and with clinical results in these patients. Method: This research used genomic data of 265 NRAS wildtype ICI-pretreatment samples from five ICI-treated melanoma cohorts to analyze the relationship between NOTCH family gene mutation and the efficacy of ICI therapy. Results: NRAS wildtype melanomas with NOTCH4-Mut were identified to be associated with prolonged overall survival (OS) in both the discovery (HR: 0.30, 95% CI: 0.11-0.83, Conclusion: NOTCH4 mutation may promote tumor immunity and serve as a biomarker to predict good immune response in NRAS wildtype melanoma and guide immunotherapeutic responsiveness.
