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: Patients with epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR)-mutant lung adenocarcinoma who develop resistance to first-generation tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) without a T790M mutation face a therapeutic dilemma with limited and suboptimal options. Methods: In this multicenter retrospective study, the final analyzable modeling cohort included 490 patients with complete eligible CT imaging and outcome labels, comprising a training cohort of 326 patients, validation cohort 1 of 70 patients, and validation cohort 2 of 94 patients. Model performance was evaluated using AUC, decision curve analysis, and PFS stratification analyses. Results: The 2.5D axial model achieved AUCs of 0.885, 0.819, and 0.863 in the training cohort, validation cohort 1, and validation cohort 2, respectively, based on the locked source prediction files. Conclusion: A CT-based 2.5D deep learning model showed promising performance for treatment-response prediction after EGFR-TKI resistance, but prospective validation and clinical-variable benchmarking remain necessary before clinical implementation.
