Beyond castration-defining future directions in the hormonal treatment of prostate cancer.
Review in Hormones & cancer, 2012. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
It is now almost 70 years since Charles Huggins described the relationship between testosterone and the prostate gland. Arguably defining one of the first targeted therapies, the reduction of testosterone to castrate levels remains unaltered as the standard of care for men with metastatic prostate cancer. The failure of castration to permanently control the growth of prostate cancer leads to a state called castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC). Whilst numerous mechanisms have been suggested for the emergence of castration resistance [Scher and Sawyers (J Clin Oncol 23(32):8253-8261, 2005); Chen et al. (Curr Opin Pharmacol 8(4):440-448, 2008), Pienta and Bradley (Clin Cancer Res 12(6):1665-1671, 2006); Feldman and Feldman (Nat Rev Cancer 1(1):34-45, 2001); Mostaghel and Nelson (Best Pract Res Clin Endocrinol Metab 22(2):243-258, 2008)], a greater understanding of prostate cancer biology suggests that many such cancers retain a dependency on androgens and endeavour to increase bioavailable androgens through mechanisms such as AR amplification and intracrine androgen synthesis [Mohler et al. (Clin Cancer Res 10(2):440-448, 2004); Attard et al. (Clin Cancer Res 17(7):1649-1657, 2011); Hu et al. (Expert Rev Endocrinol Metab 5(5):753-764, 2010)]. With the recent approval of abiraterone acetate (Zytiga) and the pending approval of MDV3100, this article previews the future directions in clinical development and issues that will arise with the next generation of androgen-targeted agents.
