Combined large‑cell neuroendocrine carcinoma and small‑cell lung cancer: 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. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Combined large-cell neuroendocrine carcinoma (LCNEC) and small-cell lung cancer (SCLC) is extremely rare, with only a few reports available in the literature. An accurate diagnosis is difficult to make due to the overlapping clinical features between LCNEC and SCLC, and a standardized treatment option is lacking. A 53-year-old female patient was admitted to Xiaoshan Affiliated Hospital of Wenzhou Medical University (Hangzhou, China) due to symptoms of dyspnea and phlegm, with blood in the sputum. Computed tomography revealed a 52×32×26-mm irregular soft-tissue mass in the left upper lung. Pathological examination of the biopsy specimen showed a poorly differentiated neuroendocrine carcinoma with compression injury, consistent with a mixed type of large and small cell carcinoma. The patient was administered chemotherapy, radiotherapy and targeted therapy, and as of October 2023, the patient had a survival period of 29 months. LCNEC combined with SCLC is a sporadic tumor with a high potential for malignancy. Multidisciplinary treatment and close follow-up are recommended. The multidisciplinary treatment strategy used in the present study is expected to help inform future therapeutic decisions.
