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

Introduction: Dysregulated Methods: This retrospective cohort study included patients with advanced Results: This study included 27 patients, with a median age of 69 years; 40.7% of the patients were male individuals, and 88.9% never smoked. Overall, the treatment response of the TKI combination reported 29.6% (eight of 27) partial response, 55.6% (15 of 27) stable disease, a median progression-free survival of 7.3 months, and an overall survival of 26.9 months. The adverse events were mostly grade 1 to 2, with only one patient experiencing a grade 3 or greater event, which was peripheral edema. The most common adverse events were hypoalbuminemia (44.4%), increased creatinine (44.4%), and peripheral edema (44.4%). Eight patients underwent next-generation sequencing analysis, and two (25.0%) of them had Conclusions: The TKI combination reported clinical activities in patients with advanced
