Clinical characteristics and prognostic impact of acute exacerbations in patients with interstitial lung disease and lung cancer: A single-center, retrospective cohort study.
Article in Thoracic cancer, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
backgroundAlthough acute exacerbation (AE) after treatment for lung cancer (LC) is a poor prognostic factor in patients with interstitial lung disease associated with lung cancer (ILD-LC), the risk of AE according to cancer treatment type remains unclear. Therefore, in the present study, we aimed to investigate the association between AE and treatment received for LC in patients with ILD-LC.
methodsWe conducted a retrospective study of patients with ILD-LC who had undergone treatment for LC between January 2018 and December 2022. The primary study outcome was the incidence of AE within 12 months of treatment for LC according to treatment type. The association between AE and all-cause mortality was evaluated as a secondary outcome.
resultsAmong a total of 137 patients, 23 (16.8%) developed AE within 12 months of treatment for LC. The incidence of AE according to treatment type was 4.3% for surgery, 16.2% for radiotherapy, 15.6% for chemotherapy, and 54.5% for concurrent chemoradiation therapy (CCRT). Patients who received CCRT were more likely to develop AE, even after adjustment for covariables (hazard ratio [HR], 15.39; 95% confidence interval [CI]: 4.00-59.19; p < 0.001). In addition, AE within 12 months of treatment for LC was associated with an increased risk of all-cause mortality (HR, 2.82; 95% CI: 1.13-7.04; p = 0.026).
conclusionAmong treatment options for patients with ILD-LC, CCRT was associated with an increased risk for AE. In addition, patients with AE had a higher mortality rate than patients without AE.
