Qualitative approach and treatment of patients with prostate cancer in cantonal hospital bihac during two years period.

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
introductionProstate cancer is an important cause of morbidity and mortality in human pathology. In recent years there has been an increase in the number of new cases. MATERIAL AND
methodsIn this article, we want to show the number of patients diagnosed and treated due to prostate cancer in the Cantonal Hospital Bihac, Bosnia and Herzegovina, over a two year period. After examining the medical records, we selected 70 patients diagnosed with prostate cancer. Average age was 70.9 years (51-91 years). The total PSA ranged from 1.6 to 3332 ng/ml. For each patient is determined the PSA ratio f/t PSA, with an average value of 0.13 (0.02 to 0.627).
resultsFrom the data analysis, we concluded that nearly half of the patients (30 patients), came to the urology clinic with advanced disease. The stage of the disease is well correlated with PSA value.
conclusionThe PSA can be considered as a reliable marker in the diagnosis and treatment of prostate cancer. Regardless of the current controversy on the issue of screening on prostate cancer using the PSA analysis, we believe that the use of this simple test in selected populations is justified for the purpose of early disease detection.
