Prognostic importance of prognostic nutritional index and modified Glasgow prognostic score in advanced lung cancer with targetable mutation.

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
backgroundInflammation and nutrition are important parameters that significantly affect survival in various malignancies. Prognostic nutritional index (PNI) and modified Glasgow prognostic score (mGPS) can reflect both inflammatory and nutritional conditions. Therefore, we aimed to evaluate the prognostic value of PNI and mGPS in patients who had the targetable mutation and also received targeted therapy. MATERIALS AND
methodsAdvanced lung cancer patients with EGFR mutation (mut) and ALK rearrangement were enrolled to study, retrospectively. PNI has with the following formula: 10 × serum albumin (g/dl) + 0.005 × peripheral lymphocyte count (per mm
resultsA total of 182 patients enrolled in the study. 132 and 50 of 182 patients had EGFR mut and ALK rearrangement, respectively. PFS was significantly longer in high PNI group in both the EGFR and ALK rearrangement-positive subgroups (P = 0.004 for EGFR mut-positive group; P = 0.017 for ALK rearrangement-positive group). Additionally, PFS was significantly shortened from mGPS 0 to 2 (P = < 0.001 for EGFR mut-positive group; P = 0.016 for ALK rearrangement-positive group).
conclusionBoth PNI and mGPS can be used as a reliable, inexpensive, and easily applicable prognostic index in the advanced lung cancer patients who had the targetable mutation and also received targeted therapy.
