Thromboinflammatory Biomarkers Are Early Predictors of Disease Progression in Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer Patients.
Article in Cancers, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers.
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
(1) Background: The hemostatic system and tumor biology display a tight and reciprocal interaction where clotting products enhance tumor growth and dissemination, and the tumor, in turn, triggers a hypercoagulable and inflammatory state. Evaluating circulating biomarkers related to thrombo-inflammatory may provide a promising tool for predicting tumor outcomes, especially in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) characterized by unfavorable outcomes. (2) Aim: In a prospective cohort of NSCLC patients, we evaluated whether thromboinflammatory biomarkers could predict early disease progression (DP) during the first 6 months of first-line anticancer treatment. (3) Methods: 719 newly diagnosed advanced-stage NSCLC patients were included. Complete blood cell count, high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP), FVIII, fibrinogen, D-dimer, thrombin-antithrombin (TAT) complexes, and prothrombin fragment1+2(F1+2) were tested in blood samples collected before starting chemotherapy. DP was gathered during follow-up. (4) Results: The 6-month cumulative incidence rate for DP was 49%. Univariable Cox regression analysis identified metastatic status, BMI, hemoglobin, leukocytes, hs-CRP, FVIII, fibrinogen, TAT, and D-dimer as significant predictors of DP. In a multivariable analysis that included all previously significant variables, only hs-CRP and D-Dimer levels remained strongly associated with DP. The two variables were used to establish a risk stratification model that significantly identified patients at high risk of DP at 6 months (HR 2.9; 95% CI, 2.3-3.7), which can be applied to 3, 9, and 12 months. (5) Conclusions: Our model easily and precisely estimates early DP during chemotherapy. If externally validated, this model can significantly enhance the allocation of medical resources in managing advanced NSCLC, ensuring that patients receive the most effective care possible.
