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

Background/Aim: Tumor intrinsic β-catenin signaling has been reported to influence the tumor immune microenvironment and may be a resistance mechanism to immune checkpoint inhibitors in various cancers. Patients and Methods: We studied the association between tumor β-catenin expression and survival in 50 patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) treated with anti-programmed death-1 antibody monotherapy. Tumor β-catenin expression was evaluated by immunohistochemistry. Results: Patients with positive tumor β-catenin expression (20% of all patients) had worse progression-free survival and overall survival compared with those with negative tumor β-catenin expression. Patients with positive tumor β-catenin expression had reduced CD8 Conclusion: NSCLC patients with positive tumor β-catenin expression that were treated with anti-programmed death-1 antibody monotherapy had poor prognosis.
