Emerging Role of Molecular Testing in the Management of Non-metastatic Non-small Cell Lung Cancer.
Article in Tuberculosis and respiratory diseases, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Advances in targeted therapies and immune checkpoint inhibitors have significantly enhanced survival rates for patients diagnosed with metastatic non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). In non-metastatic NSCLC, adding immune checkpoint inhibitors postchemoradiotherapy has led to improved outcomes in stage III disease and during the perioperative period for stages IB-IIIA. Recently, adjuvant osimertinib and alectinib therapy have demonstrated improved survival rates for patients with epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) or anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK) alterations, respectively; these therapies are now considered standard treatments. Additionally, osimertinib has shown efficacy when administered postchemoradiotherapy in stage III NSCLC. These findings emphasize the importance of assessing EGFR and ALK status to accurately guide treatment decisions for nearly all NSCLC patients, whether they are undergoing curative surgery, chemoradiotherapy, or receiving palliative chemotherapy. This review summarizes recent trials on perioperative and postchemoradiation therapy and advocates for the necessity of molecular testing in non-metastatic NSCLC to enhance patient outcomes.
