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

purposeMany effective vaccines against severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) have been developed, but a weaker response in individuals undergoing anticancer treatment has been reported. This study evaluates the immunogenic status and safety of SARS-CoV-2 vaccines for patients with non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC), receiving tegafur-uracil (UFT) as postoperative adjuvant chemotherapy.

methodsThe subjects of this prospective study were 40 patients who underwent surgery for NSCLC and received SARS-CoV-2 vaccines postoperatively. We compared the antibody titers of SARS-CoV-2 vaccines and the adverse events between patients who received adjuvant UFT and patients who did not.

resultsThe mean anti-S1 IgG titers were not significantly different between the UFT and without-UFT groups (mean optimal density, 0.194 vs. 0.205; P = 0.76). Multivariate analysis identified the period after the second vaccination as an independent predictor of anti-S1 IgG titer (P = 0.049), but not the UFT status (with or without-UFT treatment; P = 0.47). The prevalence of adverse events did not differ significantly between the groups, and no severe adverse events occurred.

conclusionsThe efficacy and safety of the SARS-CoV-2 vaccines for NSCLC patients who received postoperative adjuvant UFT chemotherapy were comparable to those for NSCLC patients who did not receive postoperative adjuvant UFT chemotherapy. CLINICAL

trial registrationThis study was registered with the University Hospital Medical Information Network (UMIN) in Japan (UMIN000047380).
