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 prognostic value of baseline bone mineral density (BMD) and posttreatment BMD decrease (BMDD) in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients receiving immune checkpoint inhibitor (ICI) treatment remains unclear. We assembled data of 2096 patients with advanced NSCLC from five institutions to develop a combined model incorporating BMD/BMDD and clinical characteristics for noninvasive prognosis prediction. BMD was automatically assessed using a deep learning-based method. Compared with the physiological BMD group and the non-severe BMDD group, the pathological BMD group and the severe BMDD group had shorter progression-free survival (PFS) (hazard ratio [HR]: 1.19,
