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

Objective: This study aims to evaluate the efficacy and safety of anlotinib plus docetaxel in patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) who have previously treated with immunotherapy. Methods: This retrospective analysis was conducted on 86 previously immunotherapy-treated patients with advanced NSCLC from December 2018 to October 2024 in clinical practice. Those who received anlotinib plus docetaxel were assigned to experimental group (EG, N=43), while those who were treated with docetaxel monotherapy were deemed as control group (CG, N=43) in clinical practice. Efficacy and safety of both regimens were compared with regular follow-up for survival data collection. The primary endpoints included overall survival (OS) and secondary endpoints were progression-free survival (PFS), objective response rate (ORR) and disease control rate (DCR). Results: ORR in the experimental and control groups was 30.2% (95% CI: 17.2-46.1%) and 13.9% (95% CI: 5.3-27.9%), respectively, showing a trend towards significance ( Conclusion: Anlotinib plus docetaxel demonstrated preliminary efficacy and a tolerable safety profile in patients with previously immunotherapy-treated advanced NSCLC, providing a potential therapeutic option in the post-immunotherapy setting. The conclusion should be confirmed in prospective clinical trials subsequently.
