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

A novel bioanalytical method combining surfactant-enhanced emulsification liquid-liquid microextraction (SE-LLME) with sweeping micellar electrokinetic chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (MEKC-MS/MS) was developed and validated for therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM) of alpelisib (ALP) and fulvestrant (FUL) in human plasma. This method addresses the need for sensitive, selective quantification in patients with PIK3CA-mutated, HR+/HER2- breast cancer. Sample preparation involved protein precipitation followed by SE-LLME using pentadecafluorooctanoic acid (PFOA) and chloroform, yielding recoveries greater than 88.4% for ALP and 78.7% for FUL. Optimised MEKC conditions were 50 mM ammonium pentadecafluorooctanoate at pH 9.75 with 25% methanol, 30 kV separation voltage, 30 °C capillary temperature, and 100 mbar additional pressure during the analysis. Sweeping preconcentration significantly enhanced sensitivity-109-fold for ALP and 11.2-fold for FUL. The method was validated per ICH guidelines, demonstrating excellent linearity (
