Real-world data on severe lung cancer: a multicenter retrospective study.
Article in Translational lung cancer research, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Background: Severe lung cancer is a novel concept that describes a patient with poor performance status (PS; 2-4) but with a high probability of receiving survival benefit and improvement in the PS score. However, there is currently no relevant research or real-world data on those with severe lung cancer, such as incidence, cause, clinical features, and risk factors. Methods: The data from patients with advanced lung cancer attending multiple centers from January 1, 2022, to June 30, 2022, were collected for a cross-sectional study. In addition, data from fatal cases from January 1, 2019, to June 30, 2022, were retrospectively collected as another cohort. And we developed a questionnaire to assess clinicians' mastery of severe lung cancer. Results: Three participating institutes enrolled the data set of 1,725 patients, and the dataset of 269 fatal cases were included in another cohort; the incidence of severe lung cancer was 13.10% and 37.55%, respectively. Severe lung cancer patients were mainly stage IV elderly male patients without gene mutation and a history of resection. And the proportion of smoking and comorbidities in severe lung cancer patients is more than in non-severe lung cancer patients (50.4% Conclusions: The incidence of severe lung cancer cannot be ignored based on real-world data. Treatment-related AEs are gradually account for more of the causes of severe lung cancer, surpassing cancer-related symptoms and comorbidities. Furthermore, the prognosis of patients with advanced lung cancer who develop severe lung cancer due to treatment-related AEs is worse than cancer-related symptoms.
