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
purposeEpidemiological data from Sapin are lacking, especially in a publication relating Spanish data and prevalence of programmed cell death ligand-1 (PD-L1) expression. This study aimed to evaluate the prevalence of PD-L1 expression by Combined Positive Score (CPS) ≥ 5 in patients with advanced esophagogastric adenocarcinoma (aEGAC) in Spain.
methodsThis observational, retrospective, and multicenter study collected sociodemographic and clinical data from adult patients with locally advanced unresectable, recurrent, or metastatic EGAC across 21 centers in the AGAMENON-SEOM registry. CPS PD-L1 expression was centrally analyzed using the IHC 28-8 pharmDx.
resultsA total of 166 patients were included, with 144 valid and evaluable samples. The primary tumor locations were stomach (70.1%), gastroesophageal junction (19.4%), and esophagus (10.4%). At diagnosis, 84.0% had synchronous metastatic disease, 4.9% had unresectable locally advanced disease, and 11.1% had recurrent disease. PD-L1 CPS ≥ 5 was observed in 41.7% of the patients (95%CI, 34.3-50.4%). Prevalence by tumor type was 41.6% (95% CI, 32.0-51.2%) in gastric adenocarcinoma, 35.7% (95% CI, 18.0-53.5%) in gastroesophageal junction adenocarcinomas, and 60.0% (95% CI, 35.2-84.8%) in esophageal adenocarcinoma. PD-L1 CPS ≥ 5 was found in 42.9% (95% CI, 6.2-79.5%) of patients with unresectable locally advanced disease, 43.0% (95% CI, 34.2-51.8%) of those with metastatic disease, and 37.5% (95% CI, 13.8-61.2%) of those with recurrent disease.
conclusionThis is the first study to report the real-world prevalence of PD-L1 expression in patients with aEGAC in clinical practice in Spain. These findings underscore the importance of understanding PD-L1 prevalence in the Spanish population and investigating discrepancies with previous studies.
