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

IntroductionThis study aimed to evaluate the therapeutic effect of osimertinib and further to compare the results of osimertinib plus brain radiation vs. osimertinib monotherapy in advanced EGFR-mutant non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients with brain metastases (BMs).MethodsA retrospective study was conducted involving 62 advanced EGFR-mutant NSCLC patients with BMs who were treated with first-line osimertinib at the Vietnam National Cancer Hospital between April 2019 and December 2023. Patients were categorised in two treatment groups: (1) osimertinib alone (33 patients) and (2) osimertinib combined with locoregional therapy, including stereotactic radiosurgery or whole-brain radiotherapy (29 patients). Endpoints included objective response rate (ORR), central nervous system response rate (CNS-ORR), progression-free survival (PFS), overall survival (OS).ResultsThe systemic ORR was 91.9% and the disease-control rate (DCR) was 96.8%. The CNS-ORR was 91.9% and the CNS-DCR was 100%. The median PFS and median OS achieved were 24.5 and 35.2 months, respectively. There was no significant difference in outcomes between patients in either treatment group with respect to CNS-ORR (
