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 Phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K) inhibitors may be used in cancer progression and mortality along with standard therapy to improve therapeutic efficacy of Advanced Breast Cancer (ABC). PURPOSE: This systematic review and meta- analysis were conducted to understand the therapeutic and toxicity profile of PI3K inhibitors in ABC.

methodsThe electronic databases were searched for suitable trials as per the criteria. The outcomes assessed were Progression- Free Survival, Objective Response Rate and Disease Control Rate. The data were systematically reviewed and meta-analyzed by Mantele- Haenszel method.

resultsSeven studies were included in the systematic review and meta- analysis. The co- administration of PI3K inhibitors with standard therapy improved the Progression- Free Survival significantly, while a marginal improvement was observed in Objective Response Rate, no difference in Disease Control Rate and toxicity significantly increased.

conclusionsThe addition of PI3K inhibitors decreased the risk of progression but increased the risk of toxicity.
