Neuroendocrine differentiation in castration-resistant prostate cancer: A case report.
Article in Molecular and clinical oncology, 2015. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
The most common type of prostate cancer is acinar adenocarcinoma, which is androgen-dependent and, therefore, treated with chemical or surgical castration and androgen receptor inhibition. However, the disease usually progresses to castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC). A neuroendocrine pattern is frequently observed in the cellular composition of CRPC, which is considered to emerge as an effect of androgen deprivation therapy. This is the case report of a 69-year-old patient with prostate adenocarcinoma, who, after an initial period of disease control with radiotherapy and antiandrogens, was diagnosed with CRPC with high levels of prostate-specific antigen (PSA), unresponsive to androgen inhibition, with accompanying lung and osseous metastases. Bronchial biopsy of the lung metastasis revealed infiltration by non-small-cell adenocarcinoma of prostatic origin with neuroendocrine characteristics. On somatostatin receptor scintigraphy with
