Therapeutic Impact of Third-generation Tyrosine Kinase Inhibitors on Lung Squamous Cell Carcinoma with Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor Mutations: A Case Description and Systematic Literature Review.

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.
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
Epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) mutations are uncommon in lung squamous cell carcinoma (SQC). However, the role of third-generation EGFR-tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) remains unclear. The present study provides a case description and a systematic literature review of 34 eligible cases. Third-generation EGFR-TKIs demonstrate superior initial responsiveness compared to earlier-generation TKIs. The efficacy of TKIs was consistent across SQC forms (including de novo or adenocarcinoma-transformed cases) and EGFR mutation types. The findings indicate that, compared with early-generation TKIs, third-generation TKIs are effective against de novo SQCs and should be considered a plausible treatment option for transformed SQCs.
