Dissecting the genetic variations associated with response to first-line chemotherapy in patients with small cell lung cancer: a retrospective cohort study.

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: Chemotherapy has been the standard treatment for small-cell lung cancer (SCLC) for decades. Nonetheless, patients are usually responsive to initial chemotherapy but quickly suffer from relapse, resulting in a poor long-term outcome. Treating advances that greatly ameliorate survival outcomes are historically finite, and credible biomarkers for therapeutic evaluation are deficient. As the genetic biology emerges, investigating biomarkers to optimize individualized treatment for SCLC is necessary. Methods: Based on following inclusion criteria: (I) patients diagnosed as SCLC by pathology; (II) patients treated with first-line etoposide/cisplatin (EP) chemotherapy; (III) patients who received long-term follow-up and signed informed consent, a total of 24 SCLC patients receiving first-line standard chemotherapy were divided into progressive disease (PD) and partial response (PR) groups. They were regularly followed every 3 months with computed tomography (CT) scan until recurrences determined by CT scan results. Next-generation sequencing (NGS) with a panel of 1,406 cancer-related genes was conducted on the tumor tissue-derived DNA of patients to compare genetic variations, including deletions (indels), single nucleotide variations (SNVs), copy number variations (CNVs), and copy number instability (CNI) between the two groups. Results: For the clinical characteristics of enrolled SCLC patients, except for significant differences in sex, age, clinical stage, and limited or extensive stage, PD patients showed distinctly shorter overall survival than those with PR (6.5 Conclusions: Increased
