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

backgroundGastrointestinal tract metastasis from lung cancer is rare and compared to small cell lung cancer (SCLC), non-SCLC (NSCLC) is even less likely to metastasize in this manner. Additionally, small intestinal tumors can also present with diverse complications, some of which require urgent intervention. CASE SUMMARY: In this report, we detail a unique case of stage IV lung cancer, where the presence of small intestine tumors led to intussusception. Subsequent to a small intestine resection, pathology confirmed that all three tumors within the small intestine were metastases from adenocarcinoma of the lung. The postoperative follow-up period extended beyond 14 mo.

conclusionIn patients with stage IV NSCLC, local tumor control can be achieved with various treatments. However, if small intestinal metastasis occurs, surgical intervention remains necessary, as it may improve survival.
