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

Background and Objective: Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) have been widely applied and studied in the treatment of gastrointestinal (GI) cancers, and have achieved good results. However, in clinical practice, it has been observed that only some patients respond well to ICIs, and some patients may experience various degrees of adverse reactions during the treatment. Timely evaluation of the potential therapeutic effects and adverse reactions of ICIs for patients has important clinical significance. This review aimed to summarize recent progress regarding efficacy-associated biomarkers for ICIs in GI cancer. Methods: The literature on ICI treatment in GI cancers was searched in the PubMed, Embase, and Cochrane Library databases for publications up to April 2023. Key Content and Findings: Clinical practice and research has gradually revealed some biomarkers related to the treatment of GI cancers with ICIs, which can be roughly divided into three types: biomarkers that predict the effectiveness of ICIs treatment, biomarkers associated with resistance to ICIs, and biomarkers associated with immune related adverse events (irAEs). This review article provides a literature review on biomarkers related to the efficacy of ICIs in the treatment of GI cancers. Conclusions: According to existing clinical research results, there are multiple biomarkers that can be used for predicting and monitoring the efficacy and risk of adverse events of ICIs in the treatment of digestive system malignant tumors.
