The role of intermittent androgen deprivation therapy in the management of biochemically recurrent or metastatic prostate cancer.
Review in Current urology reports, 2015. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) is a well-established treatment for locally advanced, biochemically recurrent and metastatic prostate cancer. However, it is associated with significant side effects including hot flashes, loss of libido and erectile function, muscular atrophy, metabolic abnormalities, and osteoporosis. In attempt to mitigate the side effects of ADT while retaining the oncological benefits, an approach of intermittent ADT (IAD) has been investigated. IAD involves alternating periods of treatment with intervals off treatment to allow hormone recovery. PSA thresholds are triggers for withdrawing and reinitiating therapy. Potential advantages of IAD include improved quality of life with fewer side effects and reduced cost. Delays in the development of hormone resistance have not been demonstrated clinically. The appropriate use of IAD requires patient selection and close monitoring of quality of life and disease status. This review presents the most recent evidence on the role of IAD in the management of prostate cancer.
