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
purposeTo compare the efficacy and safety between pyrotinib (Pyr) and trastuzumab emtansine (T-DM1) in pre-treated human epidermal growth factor receptor 2-positive (HER2+) metastatic breast cancer (MBC) patients.
methodsA comprehensive literature search of the PubMed, EMBASE, and Web of Science was performed in August 2020. Randomized clinical trials comparing the efficacy and safety between different anti-HER2 regimens in patients pre-treated with trastuzumab (Tra) and a taxane in metastatic settings (≤second-line treatment) were included. A fixed effects network meta-analysis based on the Bayesian inferential framework was conducted for progression-free survival (PFS), overall survival (OS), overall response rate (ORR), and grade ≥3 adverse events (AEs). Values of surface under cumulative ranking probability curve (SUCRA) were calculated to offer a ranking of all regimens.
resultsTwelve studies with 4,353 subjects were identified. Nine regimens were included into the network: T-DM1, lapatinib-capecitabine (Lap-Cap), Tra-Cap, Cap, neratinib (Ner), pertuzumab (Per)-Tra-Cap, Pyr-Cap, atezolizumab (Ate)-T-DM1, and Ner-Cap. For PFS, Pyr-Cap was more favorable than T-DM1 (hazard ratio, 95% confidence interval: 0.77, 0.70-0.86), Lap-Cap (0.64, 0.59-0.69), Tra-Cap (0.63, 0.56-0.70), Cap (0.50, 0.45-0.56), Ner (0.59, 0.51-0.69), Per-Tra-Cap (0.68, 0.59-0.79), and Ner-Cap (0.72, 0.64-0.81). For OS, Pyr-Cap showed further improvement than Lap-Cap (hazard ratio, 95% confidence interval: 0.71, 0.52-0.99), Cap (0.68, 0.49-0.96), and Ner (0.65, 0.45-0.94). For ORR, Pyr-Cap was significantly superior than Cap (odds ratio, 95% confidence interval: 7.87, 1.22-56.51). No significant difference was observed in grade ≥3 AEs among all the regimens. Pyr-Cap ranked in the highest in PFS, OS, ORR, and grade ≥3 AEs (SUCRA = 99.4, 89.7, 86.4, and 89.3%).
conclusionsThese results indicate that Pyr may be more effective than T-DM1 in HER2+ MBC patients pre-treated with Tra and a taxane. However, it may be associated with more grade ≥3 AEs.
