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

Dacomitinib, the second-generation epidermal growth factor receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitor (EGFR-TKI), has been used as a first-line treatment in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients harboring EGFR mutation. In this case, we report a patient with drug-induced liver injury (DILI) associated with the use of dacomitinib. A 59-year-old man with stage IV NSCLC was prescribed with dacomitinib; 37 days after dacomitinib administration, he was admitted to our hospital because of jaundice. Laboratory examinations revealed elevated serum levels of liver enzymes and bilirubin. Following the immediate discontinuation of dacomitinib, liver enzymes decreased but bilirubin continued to rise. Total bilirubin reached the peak (18-fold) on day 26 after dacomitinib termination and normalized on day 146 after dacomitinib discontinuation. A "probable" cause of DILI by dacomitinib was determined based on the Roussel Uclaf Causality Assessment Method. The severity of DILI was assessed as acute liver failure. To our knowledge, this is the first case of DILI caused by dacomitinib monotherapy in a real-world setting. Clinicians should pay particular attention to the possibility of DILI during dacomitinib treatment.
