Everolimus in pituitary tumor: a review of preclinical and clinical evidence.
Review in Frontiers in endocrinology, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Although pituitary tumors (PTs) are mostly benign, some PTs are characterized by low surgical resection rates, high recurrence rates, and poor response to conventional treatments and profoundly affect patients' quality of life. Everolimus (EVE) is the only FDA-approved mTOR inhibitor, which can be used for oral treatment. It effectively inhibits tumor cell proliferation and angiogenesis. It has been administered for various neuroendocrine tumors of the digestive tract, lungs, and pancreas. EVE not only suppresses the growth and proliferation of APT cells but also enhances their sensitivity to radiotherapy and chemotherapy. This review introduces the role of the PI3K/AKT/mTOR pathway in the development of APTs, comprehensively explores the current status of preclinical and clinical research of EVE in APTs, and discusses the blood-brain barrier permeability and safety of EVE.
