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

backgroundAs the number of genetic mutations that must be tested increases, the Oncomine Dx Target test (ODxTT), which can simultaneously detect multiple cancer-related genes is becoming the main test used in preference to single-molecule testing. In this study, we evaluated the performance of ODxTT and cobas EGFR mutation test v2 (cobas EGFR), one of the single-molecule tests, in detecting EGFR mutations.

methodsSamples from 211 patients diagnosed with NS-NSCLC were tested simultaneously or sequentially with the cobas EGFR mutation test and ODxTT. We compared the success and detection rates of both tests and evaluated their equivalence by determining the concordance rate and k-coefficient of both tests.

resultsThe success rate in detecting EGFR mutations was 95.7% for ODxTT and 100% for cobas EGFR. EGFR mutations were detected in 26.5% of samples with ODxTT and in 28.0% with cobas EGFR. For the 200 samples successfully analyzed with both tests, the concordance rate and k-coefficient were 97.5% and 0.938, respectively. ODxTT failed to detect two exon 19 deletion mutations (p.E746_P753delinsVS and p.E746_P753delinsLS), and cobas EGFR failed to detect three instances of an exon 19 deletion (p.L747_P753delinsS), L861R, and an exon 20 insertion. DISCUSSION: The success rate of ODxTT is slightly inferior to that of cobas EGFR. ODxTT shared a high concordance rate and k-coefficient with cobas EGFR in detecting EGFR mutations, but discordant results between the two tests were observed in a few cases, mainly due to the difference of detectable EGFR variants.
