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

The patient with hormone-refractory prostate cancer (HRPC) presents unique management challenges for both the urologist and the medical oncologist. Because of a lack of effective treatment options, the management of patients with HRPC has historically been palliative. Over the past 10 years, the advent of relatively efficacious chemotherapeutic regimens, particularly taxane-based chemotherapy, has resulted in a desire to treat patients with HRPC more aggressively. The complex needs of these patients have made a multidisciplinary approach, inclusive of specialists with expertise in disease processes directly affecting the patient, the optimal means of treating HRPC. An understanding of the natural history and complications of HRPC, combined with a systemic evaluative process, can allow the multidisciplinary team to comprehensively address the needs of the individual patient with HRPC.
