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

introductionAtezolizumab, bevacizumab, carboplatin, and paclitaxel (ABCP) combination therapy is a standard of care for advanced non-squamous non-small cell lung cancer (NSQ-NSCLC); however, the lack of safety data limits its clinical application in Japan.

methodsThis study compared the safety of ABCP with that of bevacizumab, carboplatin, and paclitaxel (BCP) combination for the treatment of advanced NSQ-NSCLC in Japanese patients by evaluating the clinical background and incidence of adverse events (AEs) based on data extracted from the Diagnosis Procedure Combination (DPC) database. Incidence rates and restricted mean survival times (RMSTs) for up to 1 year were analyzed for 19 clinically important AEs. Covariates were adjusted using the inverse probability weighting method.

resultsA search conducted using the International Statistical Classification of Diseases and Related Health Problems 10th Revision codes identified 350,987 patients, of whom 202 were included in the ABCP cohort and 232 in the BCP cohort. Among the 19 AEs, the incidence of skin disorder and febrile neutropenia (FN) was significantly higher in the ABCP cohort versus the BCP cohort. The adjusted incidence rate ratios were 2.65 [95% confidence interval (CI) 1.43-4.91] for skin disorder and 1.70 (95% CI 1.01-2.85) for FN. The adjusted RMST differences were - 64.2 days (95% CI - 93.0 to - 35.4 days) and - 46.0 days (95% CI - 73.5 to - 18.5 days) for skin disorder and FN, respectively. These results were comparable to those of other pivotal clinical trials.

conclusionsThe findings of this DPC database study highlight the safety of ABCP in Japanese clinical practice, and this methodology may facilitate more efficient research in real-world settings.
