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

In patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) harboring a fusion of the neurotrophic receptor kinase (NTRK) gene 1 or 3, treatment with tropomyosin kinase (TRK) inhibitors have shown promising results, however so far no data on efficacy of these agents in patients with NSCLC and NTRK2 fusion are available. We present a case of a female patient with NTRK2-positive NSCLC with a complete ongoing response on therapy with larotrectinib, suggesting efficacy of first-generation TRK inhibitors also in NTRK2-positive NSCLC.
