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: Encorafenib plus cetuximab (EC) is the standard of care for pre-treated Objectives: We aimed to assess potential predictors of primary resistance to EC ± binimetinib (B) and relationships of DpR/ETS with survival outcomes and clinical characteristics. Design: This is a retrospective real-world cohort study of Methods: Measurable disease according to Response Evaluation Criteria In Solid Tumour (RECIST) 1.1 at baseline and at least one subsequent computed tomography (CT) scan were mandatory for inclusion. Clinical features associated with primary resistance, DpR and ETS were investigated. Relationships of DpR and ETS, both as binary, according to conventional (30% for DpR and 20% for ETS) and median cut-off values, and continuous variables, with progression-free (PFS), overall survival (OS) and duration of response (DoR) were assessed in non-primary resistant patients. Results: A total of 105 patients were included. The primary resistance rate was 28% (29/105) and was associated with baseline peritoneal metastases ( Conclusion: A DpR of at least 15% independently predicts PFS benefit in
