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

An 80-year-old man underwent a left lower lobectomy for lung adenocarcinoma. Next-generation sequencing in a clinical trial identified an epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) exon 19 insertion (exon19ins), which was not detected by the Oncomine™ Dx Target Test®, a companion diagnostic tool for EGFR mutations. However, the Lung Cancer Compact Panel® Dx (LCCP), another companion diagnostic tool, confirmed exon19ins. Osimertinib was administered, which led to a slight tumor response. This case suggests that LCCP may be useful in detecting rare EGFR mutations and that osimertinib may be effective against exon19ins.
