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: To investigate the clinical features of thyroid dysfunction in lung cancer patients treated with programmed cell death receptor-1 (PD-1) or programmed cell death receptor-ligand 1 (PD-L1) and their value for predicting therapeutic efficacy. Methods: Lung cancer patients treated with PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitors at West China Hospital, Sichuan University between March 2018 and September 2022 were retrospectively enrolled. Data concerning the medical records, therapeutic efficacy, and thyroid function indicators of the patients were retrieved from the hospital electronic medical record information system. The data were then analyzed to identify risk factors and predictive factors for immune-related adverse events (irAEs) of the thyroid. The predictive value of thyroid irAEs for treatment efficacy and prognosis was assessed. Objective response rate (ORR) was defined as the indicator for therapeutic efficacy and progression-free survival (PFS) was defined as the prognostic indicator. Results: A total of 368 lung cancer patients were enrolled. Among them, 31.5% (116/368) developed thyroid irAEs. According to the results of logistic regression analysis, baseline thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH) concentration and baseline positive results for thyroglobulin antibody (TGAb) and thyroid peroxidase antibody (TPOAb) were risk factors for thyroid dysfunction caused by PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitors. Among the three measures, baseline TPOAb concentration demonstrated good predictive value for thyroid irAEs, with an area under the receiver-operating characteristic (ROC) curve (AUC) of 0.745. Patients with thyroid irAEs had a longer median PFS (16.0 months vs. 9.7 months, Conclusion: In lung cancer patients treated with the PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitors, the TPOAb antibody demonstrates good predictive value for thyroid irAEs. Patients who develop thyroid irAEs have better treatment outcomes and prognosis.
