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

backgroundThis study aimed to compare the efficacy and safety of PD-1/L1 in-hibitors combined with anlotinib versus PD-1/L1 inhibitors combined with bevacizumab as second-line treatments for advanced NSCLC patients Methods: A retrospective analysis was carried out on data from advanced NSCLC patients who received either PD-1/L1 inhibitors combined with anlotinib or PD-1/L1 inhibitors com-bined with bevacizumab as second-line therapy. Clinical outcomes, including Overall Sur-vival (OS), Progression-Free Survival (PFS), Objective Response Rate (ORR), Disease Con-trol Rate (DCR), and Adverse Events (AEs), were compared between the two treatment groups.

resultsThe results revealed that patients receiving PD-1/L1 inhibitors combined with anlo-tinib exhibited better efficacy compared to patients receiving PD-1/L1 inhibitors combined with bevacizumab (mPFS 5.0m vs. 4.0m, mOS 10.0m vs. 8.0m, ORR 31.25% vs. 17.14%, DCR 65.63% vs. 45.71%). Additionally, both treatment regimens were generally well-tolerated, with most adverse events being manageable and of mild to moderate severity. However, compared with patients receiving PD-1/L1 inhibitors combined with bevaci-zumab, those receiving PD-1/L1 inhibitors combined with anlotinib have higher incidence rates of certain adverse reactions (hypertension: 34.38% vs. 17.14%, proteinuria: 25% vs. 14.29%), implying that drug combinations of the same treatment modality may exhibit dif-ferences in efficacy and adverse reactions.

conclusionIn this comparative study, PD-1/L1 inhibitors combined with anlotinib demon-strated superior efficacy compared to PD-1/L1 inhibitors combined with bevacizumab as second-line therapy for advanced NSCLC patients, with a manageable safety profile. These findings provide valuable clinical evidence for guiding treatment decisions in this patient population.
