The Use of Real-World Evidence for Oral Chemotherapies in Breast Cancer.
Review in Journal of the advanced practitioner in oncology, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers.
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
Almost all patients with breast cancer will eventually receive chemotherapy drugs, the majority of which are administered as IV infusions. Real-world evidence indicates that while current treatment paradigms vary considerably from guideline recommendations, there is an increasing trend towards a preference for oral oncolytics among patients with breast cancer. Recent data have shown that oral anticancer therapeutics represent 25% of the oncology drug market share and that there is a high demand for these agents. Therefore, oral formulations of chemotherapy agents such as paclitaxel are currently under development. Although oral oncolytics are associated with several advantages over conventional intravenous drugs, maintaining adherence to therapy is a major barrier in achieving improved outcomes with these agents. Advanced practitioners can facilitate improved adherence to oral oncolytics by integrating evidence into practice to support better education and communication strategies to address patient concerns, overcome key hurdles, and ultimately, empower patients.
