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

Background: Previous studies have reported an association between expression of thyroid transcription factor 1 (TTF-1) and the efficacy of immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs), cytotoxic chemotherapy, and immunochemotherapy in patients with advanced non-squamous non-small cell lung cancer (NS-NSCLC). However, the relationship between TTF-1 expression and the efficacy of cytotoxic chemotherapy in patients with NS-NSCLC with idiopathic interstitial pneumonias (IIPs) remains unclear. This study aimed to evaluate the relationship TTF-1 expression and the efficacy of platinum-doublet chemotherapy in patients with NS-NSCLC with coexisting IIPs. Methods: This retrospective study reviewed 120 patients with NSCLC complicated by IIPs who were treated at Nippon Medical School Hospital in Japan between January 2010 and December 2024. We analyzed the efficacy and safety of carboplatin and either paclitaxel or nanoparticle albumin-bound (nab-) paclitaxel for NS-NSCLC with IIPs. Results: In the total cohort, 51 patients were evaluated for TTF-1 expression status and administered carboplatin plus (nab-) paclitaxel as first-line therapy. TTF-1 expression was observed in 32 patients (63%). Twenty-five patients (49%) exhibited a usual interstitial pneumonia (UIP) pattern. The overall response rate (ORR) was significantly higher in the TTF-1-positive group compared to the TTF-1-negative group (62.4% Conclusions: TTF-1 expression is an independent prognostic factor in patients with NS-NSCLC complicated by IIPs who received carboplatin plus (nab-) paclitaxel. TTF-1 expression may represent a valuable biomarker for characterizing the disease subtypes and guiding therapeutic strategies in lung cancer with coexisting IIPs.
