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

Lung cancer ranks first among all malignancies in incidence, with current treatment strategies including surgery, chemotherapy, immunotherapy, and targeted therapy. Despite these advances, drug resistance in advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) remains a major obstacle and innovative therapeutic approaches are imperative to address it. Chimeric antigen receptor T-cell (CAR-T) therapy has shown impressive and long-lasting results in blood cancers, but its success in solid tumors such as lung cancer remains limited. This review summarizes recent advances and future directions of CAR-T therapy in NSCLC, focusing on major therapeutic targets such as EGFR, MSLN, PD-L1, MUC1, CEA, and ROR1, as well as on the efficacy and potential of combining CAR-T therapy with other treatment modalities. Additionally, we discuss adverse events in NSCLC patients undergoing CAR-T therapy, emphasizing cytokine release syndrome (CRS) and cardiovascular complications-their incidence, pathophysiology, interrelation, and management strategies.
