A retrospective, descriptive analysis identifying non‑small cell lung cancer molecular markers.

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
Non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) remains one of the leading causes of cancer mortality worldwide. The aim of the present study was to review the histologic patterns and molecular drivers of NSCLC in patients with lung cancer. The electronic health records (EHR) of all patients diagnosed with lung cancer between April 2015 and September 2022 were obtained from a tertiary care hospital and retrospectively analysed. A total of 224 patients were identified of which 192 (138 males and 54 females) were included in the final analysis. Adenocarcinoma was the most common type of lung cancer identified, and accounted for 134 patients (70%), followed by squamous cell carcinoma in 47 (24%) patients, while large cell lung cancer was noted in only 5 (3%) patients. The most common mutations were EGFR mutations and were detected in 29 (15%) patients, followed by PD-L1 expression which was present in 56 (24.7%) patients, KRAS in 16 (8.3%) patients, ALK1 in 8 (4.2%) patients and BRAF, ROS1 and MET were present in 3 (1.6%), 2 (1%) and 1 (0.5%), respectively. The findings from the present study offer important insights into the epidemiological, clinical and molecular characteristics of NSCLC. Further research is warranted to explore the clinical implications of these findings.
