Clinical spectrum of Chinese hospitalized lung cancer patients with concomitant interstitial lung disease: before and after the new era of LC treatment.
Article in Clinical and experimental medicine, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
This study aimed to explore the general characteristics and spectrum of hospitalized Chinese patients suffering from lung cancer with concomitant interstitial lung disease (LC-ILD). Furthermore, we compared their features before and after the period of immunotherapy for lung cancer. A retrospective analysis of the clinical characteristics of hospitalized LC patients with definite pathological diagnoses was performed from 2014 to 2021. ILD was defined after the review of chest CT imaging. There were 13,085 hospitalized LC patients. Among them, 509 patients (3.89%) had 551 cases of ILD. There were variable underlying causes of ILD, including idiopathic interstitial pneumonia (360 patients), LC treatment-associated ILD (134 cases), and connective tissue disease-associated ILD (55 patients). Although most LC-ILD patients were suffering from adenocarcinoma (204/40.1%), SCLC patients were prone to concomitant ILD (10.8% of all SCLC cases), followed by SCC (9.6% of all SCC cases). All but 10 LC-ILD patients received anti-LC treatment; however, only 39 (10.8%) LC-IIP patients received anti-ILD treatment. There were more LC-ILD patients in the 2018-2021 group than in the 2014-2017 group (5.16% vs. 2.03%, p < 0.001). The underlying causes of ILD were significantly different between the 2018-2021 group and the 2014-2017 group (p < 0.001). After adjusting for the number of hospitalized patients having the same LC pathological pattern, SCLC was determined to be the most likely to be concomitant with ILD, followed by SCC. Most LC-ILD patients were scheduled for anti-LC therapy; however, treatments for concomitant IIP were usually ignored. LC treatment-associated ILD should receive more attention than before.
