An investigation into the spatial relationship between prostate intraepithelial neoplasia and cancer.

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
The distribution of high grade prostate intraepithelial neoplasia (PIN) and cancer was analysed in 18 separate areas from 89 radical prostatectomy specimens that had been sectioned and digitally imaged. When the occurrence of each type of pathology was summated a predilection was demonstrated for both pathologies in the apex of the prostate and a linear relationship was found between the frequency of cancer and high grade PIN (r(2)=0.744, P<0.05). This relationship was strongest at the apex (r(2)=0.621, P<0.005), lower in the midgland (r(2)=0.828, P<0.05) and bordered on significance at the base (r(2)=0.621, P<0.063). These results support the theory that cancer could obliterate high grade PIN as it over grows the areas once occupied by PIN.Prostate Cancer and Prostatic Diseases (2001) 4, 97-100
