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

Capivasertib, a protein kinase B (AKT) inhibitor manufactured by AstraZeneca pharmaceutical and used in the treatment of various malignancies, has been implicated in cases of drug-induced diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA). We present a case of capivasertib-induced DKA in a patient with no prior history of diabetes, highlighting the metabolic complications associated with this targeted therapy. The proposed mechanism involves AKT inhibition leading to impaired insulin signaling, reduced glucose uptake, and increased lipolysis, ultimately resulting in ketogenesis. This case underscores the need for vigilant glucose monitoring in patients receiving capivasertib, especially those with predisposing risk factors for insulin resistance or pancreatic dysfunction.
