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

The third-generation epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR)-tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) are the preferred therapy for patients with EGFR mutant non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC); however, the therapy faces resistance challenges. We aimed to clarify the resistance patterns of EGFR-TKIs in patients with EGFR mutant NSCLC. In this retrospective study, we analyzed 104 patients with advanced EGFR mutant NSCLC who experienced treatment failure of third-generation EGFR-TKIs. Resistance models were classified as 1) original site failure (OF), distant site failure (DF), and combined failure (ODF) based on the failure site or 2) oligo-progression (OP) and non-oligoprogression based on the disease progression (PD) pattern. Among the patients, 58.7% (n = 61 of 104) developed OF, while 25 (24.0%) and 18 (17.3%) developed DF and ODF, respectively. A high OP rate (76.9%, n = 80) was observed, with primary progression accounting for 30.8%. OF was related to sex (odds ratio = 3.961, 95% confidence interval: 1.629-9.631, P = 0.002). Over 50% of patients with third-generation EGFR-TKI treatment failure developed OF. Sex, central nervous system metastases, and disease stage influenced the resistance patterns of the EGFR-TKI therapy.
