Effective neoadjuvant immunotherapy and chemotherapy in stage IIIA adenosquamous carcinoma of the lung with a complete response and surgical success: A case report.
Article in Oncology letters, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
There has been rapid advancement in the development of neoadjuvant therapy for non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), which holds great promise as an effective treatment strategy. Some clinical trials have confirmed that immunotherapy in combination with chemotherapy can be a recommended first-line regimen for neoadjuvant treatment of NSCLC. The present study describes the case of a male patient aged 65 years who was diagnosed with stage IIIA (cT2N2M0) adenosquamous carcinoma of the lung. After the administration of two cycles of neoadjuvant immunotherapy (sintilimab) in combination with chemotherapy, stable disease was observed in the primary tumor, whereas partial remission was detected in the mediastinal lymph nodes based on imaging assessment. The patient underwent an immediate upper lobectomy of the left lung. Pathological analysis revealed a complete response in the primary lesion, with only minimal presence of tumor cells observed in the lymph nodes surrounding the mediastinum and bronchi. This indicated that the present neoadjuvant therapy could be used in the treatment of stage III adenosquamous lung carcinoma; however, to conclusively determine its efficacy, further studies targeting this specific cancer type are essential.
