Thyroid autoantibodies at baseline predict longer survival in non-small cell lung cancer patients treated with anti-programmed cell death-1 blockade: a prospective study.

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
The presence of anti-thyroid antibodies (ATAs) is a biomarker for the development of thyroid dysfunction induced by anti-programmed cell death-1 antibodies (PD-1-Abs). While patients with thyroid dysfunction reportedly showed better overall survival (OS), it remains unknown if ATAs at baseline can predict OS. Therefore, in this study, we examined the association of ATAs at baseline with OS in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients with different levels of programmed cell death-1 ligand 1 (PD-L1) positivity associated with PD-1-Ab treatment efficacy. A total of 81 NSCLC patients treated with PD-1-Abs were evaluated for ATAs at baseline and prospectively for OS. Among the 81 patients, 49 and 32 patients had ≥50% (group A) and <50% (group B) PD-L1 positivity, respectively. Median OS did not differ significantly between patients with (n = 13) and without (n = 36) ATAs at baseline in group A. In contrast, median OS was significantly longer in patients with (n = 10) versus without (n = 22) ATAs at baseline in group B (not reached vs 378 days, respectively; 95% CI, 182 to 574 days,
