Tumor microenvironment assessment-based signatures for predicting response to immunotherapy in non-small cell lung cancer.
Article in iScience, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It carries an expression of concern. Cited by 8 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Immunotherapy has significantly altered the treatment paradigm of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), but not all patients experience durable benefits. Predictive biomarkers are needed to identify patients who may benefit from immunotherapy. We retrospectively collected tumor tissues from 65 patients with advanced NSCLC before treatment, and performed transcriptomic and genomic analysis. By performing single-sample gene set enrichment analysis, we constructed a predictor named IKCscore based on the tumor microenvironment characteristics. IKCscore is a robust biomarker predicting response to immunotherapy, and its predictive capacity was confirmed from public datasets across different cancer types (
