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

backgroundThe mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) inhibitor everolimus is used in the treatment of breast cancer, neuroendocrine tumors, and renal cancer. The approved 10 mg once-daily dose is associated with considerable adverse effects and it has been suggested that these are associated with the maximum concentration (C

methodsWe performed a prospective, randomized, pharmacokinetic, crossover trial comparing everolimus 10 mg once daily with 5 mg twice daily. Patients received the first dose schedule for 2 weeks and then switched to the alternative regimen for 2 weeks. Pharmacokinetic sampling was performed on days 14 and 28.

resultsEleven patients were included in the study, of whom 10 were evaluable for pharmacokinetic analysis. On the 10 mg once-daily schedule, C

conclusionsWe demonstrated that switching from a once-daily to a twice-daily everolimus dose schedule reduces C REGISTRATION: This trial was registered in the EurdaCT database (2014-004833-25) and the Netherlands Trial Registry (NTR4908).
