Article in Der Urologe. Ausg. A, 2008. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Much prostate cancer research is based on cell culture results. Recent genomic studies found major differences between primary prostate cancer tissue and established prostate cancer cell lines, which calls into question the clinical relevance of study results based on cell cultures.Using primary cultures of prostate cancer cells from prostatectomy specimens seems to be a reasonable solution, but primary cell cultures are much more difficult to establish. In this study, a primary cell culture model was combined with an invasion assay. With this combination it was possible not only to select invasive cell clones from the primary culture but also to culture these cells in a three-dimensional model, forming spheroids. A further characterization of this cell population was done by comparative genomic hybridization, showing numerous genetic alterations. The presented cell culture model offers, for the first time, an opportunity to isolate invasive growing cells from primary prostate cancer tissue and cultivate these cells for further analyses.
