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

Hormonal therapies such as progestins have only modest activity in the treatment of advanced endometrial cancer. Mechanisms of resistance to progestin therapy are not well understood. However, activation of the PI3K/AKT/mTOR pathway has been associated with resistance to hormonal therapy and alterations in components of the PI3K/AKT/mTOR pathway, including inactivating mutations in PTEN, activating mutations in PIK3CA, and mutations in PIK3R1, are very common in endometrial carcinomas. mTOR inhibitors, including temsirolimus, everolimus, and ridaforolimus, are also known to be active against endometrial cancer, and interest has been stimulated in combinations of hormonal treatment with mTOR inhibitors, as both therapies have single-agent activity, and it is hypothesized that mTOR inhibition would enhance sensitivity to hormonal therapy.
