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.
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
purpose of reviewThe phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K) pathway is the most common aberrantly activated pathway in breast cancer, making it an attractive therapeutic target. In this review, we will discuss the rationale for targeting PI3K/AKT signaling and the development of PI3K/AKT inhibitors in breast cancer. RECENT
findingsAlthough the initial clinical trials with pan-PI3K inhibitors were challenged by high toxicities and modest antitumor effect, there has been continued effort to develop agents more precisely targeting PI3K isoforms to improve therapeutic index. Alpelisib in combination with fulvestrant is now available in the clinic for postmenopausal women with advanced or metastatic hormone receptor (HR)-positive, HER2-negative, PIK3CA-mutated breast cancer. In addition, promising data has been observed in randomized phase II trials of AKT inhibitors in combination with fulvestrant or paclitaxel in metastatic HR-positive, HER2-negative disease and triple negative breast cancer (TNBC), respectively. The high frequency of genetic alterations in the PI3K pathway has provided the rationale for development of inhibitors targeting PI3K/AKT. Despite initial disappointment with several randomized trials of pan-PI3K inhibitors in HR-positive breast cancer, there has been continued effort to more precisely target PI3K isoforms, which has led to clinical benefit for patients with advanced breast cancer.
