The Association Between Modified Albumin-Bilirubin (mALBI) and Survival in Advanced Non-small Cell Lung Cancer Patients Treated With Immunotherapy.

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
objectiveThis study aimed to assess the clinical value of the modified albumin-bilirubin (mALBI) grade in predicting the survival of patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) treated with immunotherapy.
methodsWe conducted a retrospective cohort study of patients with advanced NSCLC who received immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) from January 2020 to May 2022. The primary endpoints were overall survival (OS), treatment response, and the association between different mALBI grades and survival.
resultsIn these 67 patients, 85.1% (57/67) were male, and the median age was 63 years. The patients with mALBI grades 1 and 2a at baseline had a median OS of 12.83 months (95% CI: 9.4 to 16.27 months), whereas it was 3.2 months (95% CI: NA to 11.59 months) for patients with mALBI grades 2b and 3. The OS for patients with dynamic mALBI grades 1 and 2a was 13.27 months (95% CI: 8.72 to 17.81 months), significantly longer than five months (95% CI: 2.47 to 7.53 months) for dynamic mALBI grades 2b and 3 patients (p<0.01). Conclusion: In conclusion, mALBI grade may be a potential dynamic biomarker for predicting the prognosis in advanced NSCLC patients treated with immunotherapy.
