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

purposeAlthough androgen-deprivation therapy (ADT) for prostate cancer is initially effective, most tumors eventually recur even during ADT. To predict their prognosis, the Japan Cancer of the Prostate Risk Assessment (J-CAPRA) score was developed. However, there is no validation of this model using data from a single institution. Therefore, in this study, we clarified the oncological outcome of primary ADT and its prognostic factors, as well as validated the J-CAPRA score model in our institution.

methodsThis study included 248 Japanese patients with hormone-naïve prostate cancer who were treated with primary ADT from 1996 through 2012. The oncological outcome and prognostic significance of several clinicopathological factors were analyzed. Also, J-CAPRA risk stratification model was validated in this cohort.

resultsDuring a median follow-up period of 42.2 months, the median progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) were 89.3 and 103.3 months, respectively. Multivariate analysis identified clinical T-stage and M-stage for PFS and cancer-specific survival (CSS) and clinical M-stage for OS as significant predictors. The accuracy of J-CAPRA score model for predicting PFS, CSS, and OS was validated by high c-indices.

conclusionsThis study demonstrated the use of the J-CAPRA score system for predicting PFS, CSS, and OS among Japanese men treated with primary ADT in a single institution.
