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

Trastuzumab-containing therapy remains a treatment option for patients with HER2-positive gastric cancer (GC). However, primary resistance to trastuzumab is a challenge. Therefore, it is essential to identify biomarkers for predicting the efficacy of trastuzumab-based treatment. First, we retrospectively collected the clinical data of HER2-positive GC patients receiving trastuzumab-containing therapies at the Affiliated Hospital of Qingdao University from October 2019 to August 2024. The patients were divided into long-term and short-term response groups according to progression-free survival (PFS) time, treatment lines and regimens. The next-generation sequencing (NGS) results of these patients were analyzed to identify biomarkers for predicting the efficacy of trastuzumab-containing therapies. Next, the cBioPortal database and LAVA database were screened to explore molecular profiling data. A total of 38 patients were included at our center and were categorized into a responder group (N = 28) and a nonresponder group (N = 10).
