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

Purpose: This study investigated the clinical features, risk factors, and recurrence of immune-mediated liver injury (IMLI) in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients treated with immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs). Methods: A retrospective cohort of 274 NSCLC patients receiving ICIs was analyzed. Baseline inflammatory markers, including white blood cell count (WBC), albumin levels, and prognostic nutritional index (PNI), were assessed for their association with IMLI. Risk factors were identified using logistic regression, and recurrence outcomes were analyzed. Results: IMLI incidence was 35.4%, with 15.5% of cases classified as grade 3-4. WBC ≤11.0×10 Conclusion: Low baseline inflammatory status predicts IMLI in NSCLC patients undergoing ICI therapy. Monitoring baseline inflammatory markers can guide risk stratification, and re-challenging ICIs in selected patients appears feasible without significantly increasing recurrence risk.
