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
Background: Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is still of concern in differentiating it from benign disease. This study aims to validate the diagnostic efficacy of a novel seven-autoantibody (7-AAB) panel for the diagnosis of NSCLC. Methods: We retrospectively enrolled 2650 patients who underwent both the 7-AAB panel test and CT scanning. We compared the sensitivity, specificity, and PPV of 7-AAB, CT, and PET-CT in the diagnosis of NSCLC in different subgroups. Then, we established a nomogram based on CT image features and the 7-AAB panel to further improve diagnostic efficiency. Moreover, we compared the pathological and molecular results of NSCLC patients in the 7-AABs positive group and the negative group to verify the prognostic value of the 7-AAB panel. Results: The strategy of a "both-positive rule" combination of 7-AABs and CT had a specificity of 95.4% and a positive predictive value (PPV) of 95.8%, significantly higher than those of CT or PET-CT used alone (P<0.05). The nomogram we established has passed the calibration test (P=0.987>0.05) with an AUC of 0.791. Interestingly, it was found that the 7-AABs positive group was associated with higher proportion of EGFR mutations (P<0.001), lower pathological differentiation degrees (P=0.018), more advanced pathological stages (P=0.040) and higher Ki-67 indexes (P=0.011) in patients with adenocarcinoma. Conclusion: This study shows that combination of a 7-AAB panel with CT has can significantly enhance the diagnostic efficiency of lung cancer. Moreover, the 7-AAB panel also has potential prognostic value and has reference significance for the formulation of the treatment plan.
