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

Background: The phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K)/protein kinase B (PKB or AKT)/mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) signaling pathway (PAM pathway) plays a critical role in breast cancer pathogenesis and progression, and is closely linked with resistance to endocrine therapy in advanced breast cancer. Randomized clinical trials have shown that PI3K/AKT/mTOR inhibitors deliver significant clinical benefits, particularly for patients with advanced hormone receptor (HR)-positive, human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)-negative breast cancer. Methods: In 2022, the Breast Cancer Expert Committee of the National Cancer Quality Control Center convened specialists in related fields to draft the "Expert Consensus on the Clinical Application of PI3K/AKT/mTOR Inhibitors in the Treatment of Advanced Breast Cancer." This consensus raised awareness of these inhibitors among oncologists in China and improved the precision of clinical decision-making. In recent years, growing evidence has emphasized the importance of targeting the PAM pathway, reflected in the approval of several innovative agents. This consensus is an updated 2025 edition that retains the foundational structure of the 2022 edition while incorporating notable updates. Results: Updates to the consensus include the introduction of newly approved PAM pathway inhibitors, updated data from recent clinical trials, and expanded therapeutic applications. The revised guidance also offers updated recommendations for genetic testing to detect alterations in relevant pathways. The section on managing drug-related adverse events has been significantly expanded, providing detailed insights into different types of adverse events and their management. These updates aim to enhance the clinical application of PAM pathway inhibitors, promote precision medicine, and ultimately, improve survival outcomes for patients with breast cancer.
