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

The phosphoinositide 3-kinases (PI3Ks) have been the focus of a significant body of cancer research since their discovery nearly 40 years ago. These lipid kinases are now known to play central roles in cancer cell proliferation, survival, migration, metabolism, and immunity and serve as the target of numerous investigational and approved therapeutics. One of these kinases, the unique class IB PI3Kγ, which is highly expressed in myeloid lineage cells and myeloid leukemias, plays prominent roles in tumor immune suppression. Inhibition of this kinase has promoted improved antitumor immune responses in recent solid tumor preclinical studies and clinical trials. New studies also identify this kinase as a driver of acute myeloid leukemia self-renewal and as a new target for the treatment of aggressive leukemias.
