Efficacy and safety outcomes of emerging EGFR‑TKIs for patients with non‑small cell lung cancer with EGFR exon 20 insertion mutations: A systematic review and meta‑analysis.

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
Lung cancer remains a leading cause of mortality worldwide, with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) accounting for ~85% of all lung cancer cases. Epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) exon 20 insertion mutant NSCLC is rare and associated with poor outcomes. Several novel generations (third-generation) of EGFR-tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) have been developed for the treatment of NSCLC and have shown antitumour potential. Therefore, the present study reviewed their efficacy and safety outcomes for this condition. A thorough literature searching was performed using the Cochrane Library, Web of Science, PubMed and Embase databases. Clinical trials published in English and reporting overall response rate (ORR), disease control rate (DCR), progression-free survival (PFS), overall survival (OS) and treatment relevant adverse events (TRAEs) of grade ≥3 were included for further analysis. A total of 13 studies were included. All included studies reported ORRs with a pooled ORR of 0.486 [95% confidence interval (CI), 0.369-0.602]. Subgroup analysis revealed the following ORRs: 0.731 (95% CI, 0.560-0.901; I
