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

purposeTo assess the safety and efficacy of neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy with cisplatin plus S-1 for advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), with a focus on real-world outcomes.

methodsThis retrospective study analyzed 32 patients with stage II-III NSCLC eligible for resection, who received preoperative induction therapy between January 2012 and December 2022. Specifically, 20 patients received cisplatin, S-1, and radiation therapy.

resultsAmong the 32 patients who received induction therapy, the objective response rate (ORR) was 56.2%, and surgical resection was feasible in 29 patients (90.6%). The 5 year recurrence-free survival (RFS) rate was 76.4%, and the 3- and 5 year overall survival (OS) rates were 86.2% and 82.3%, respectively. In the cisplatin + S-1 + radiation therapy group (n = 20), the ORR was 65.0%, and surgical resection was feasible in 17 patients (85.0%). The 3-year RFS and OS rates were 78.3% and 83.8%, respectively. Ef. 3 (complete pathological response) was observed in 3 patients (10.3%). No recurrences occurred in the non-adenocarcinoma subgroup (n = 6), indicating better outcomes relative to the adenocarcinoma group (5-year RFS, 100% vs. 61.4%; p = 0.07).

conclusionsInduction therapy, particularly with cisplatin + S-1 + radiation was associated with promising RFS and OS in locally advanced NSCLC, with favorable tolerability and effectiveness.
