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

backgroundAnti-angiogenic agents could enhance tumor immunity response, and anti- angiogenesis plus immunotherapy has become a novel treatment option for advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). The efficacy of this combination therapy remains controversial and obscure.

aimWe conducted a meta-analysis to evaluate the clinical efficacy and safety of this therapeutic strategy in patients with advanced NSCLC and provide more guidance for treating NSCLC clinically.

methodsA systematic literature search was performed in PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, CNKI, and Wanfang databases to identify relevant studies published up to December 2021. The primary endpoint was the objective response rate (ORR). Second endpoints were progression-free survival (PFS), overall survival (OS), and grade ≥3 AEs adverse events (AEs). The sensitivity analysis was conducted to confirm the stability of the results. STATA 15.0 was utilized for all pooled analyses.

resultsEleven studies were eventually included in the meta-analysis, involving 533 patients with advanced NSCLC. The pooled ORR rate was 27% (95% CI 18% to 35%; I

conclusionAnti-angiogenesis combined with immunotherapy demonstrated satisfactory antitumor activity and an acceptable toxicity profile in patients with advanced NSCLC. The pooled results of our meta-analysis provided further evidence supporting the favorable efficacy and safety of this therapeutic strategy.
