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: Currently, only a few treatment options exist for performance status (PS) 2 patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), whereas the carboplatin/nab-paclitaxel (CBDCA/nab-PTX) regimen is attracting attention as a standard of care for PS 0-1 patients because of its wide suitability and modest risk of peripheral neuropathy. However, the treatment dose and schedule should be optimized for PS 2 patients. Therefore, we planned a single-arm phase II study to characterize the efficacy and tolerability of our modified CBDCA/nab-PTX regimen for untreated PS 2 patients with advanced NSCLC. Methods: Enrolled patients were treated with CBDCA (area under the curve 5 on day 1) plus nab-PTX (70 mg/m Results: This study was terminated early because of slow accrual. Seventeen patients [median age, 68 years (range, 50-73 years)] received a median of three cycles. The 6-month PFS rate, median PFS, and median overall survival were 20.8% [95% confidence interval (CI): 0-41.6], 3.0 months (95% CI: 1.7-4.3), and 9.5 months (95% CI: 5.0-14.0), respectively. Exploratory analyses suggested better overall survival in patients whose PS was not attributable to the disease burden (median, 9.5 Conclusions: No conclusion could be drawn from this study because of its early termination. However, our modified CBDCA/nab-PTX regimen might be useful for PS 2 patients who hesitate to use regimens other than nab-PTX, and particularly patients concerned about peripheral neuropathy or interstitial pneumonitis. The potential role of PS 2 and CCI as efficacy predictors for this regimen should be further examined.
