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

backgroundThis retrospective study focused on patients with advanced gastric cancer (AGC) for whom traditional chemotherapy has limited efficacy and responses to immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICI) vary. It explored biomarkers for predicting immunotherapy response, with a particular focus on the modified Gustave Roussy immune score (mGRIm-s).

methodsThe retrospective study enrolled 268 patients with stage IV gastric cancer who initiated ICI treatment at the PLA General Hospital between December 2014 and May 2021. Patients were stratified into low-risk and high-risk groups based on three risk factors: low albumin levels, high lactate dehydrogenase levels, and an elevated neutrophil-lymphocyte ratio.

resultsThe results showed that patients in the low mGRIm-s group had significantly longer progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) compared to those in the high mGRIm-s group. Cox regression analysis identified high mGRIm-s as a significant risk factor for disease progression and mortality. Additionally, patients in the low mGRIm-s group demonstrated higher disease control rates in short-term efficacy assessments.

conclusionThis retrospective study provides new insights into the relationship between mGRIm-s and survival outcomes in AGC patients undergoing anti-PD-1 immunotherapy.
