[Localized prostate cancer: Radiotherapeutic concepts].
Review in Der Urologe. Ausg. A, 2016. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
backgroundRadiation therapy is an established cornerstone in the treatment of prostate cancer. Significant advances in the techniques and therapeutic concepts have been made in recent decades.
objectivesThe objective of this article is to provide an overview of current standards of care and recent technical and conceptional developments.
conclusionsThree-dimensional conformal radiotherapy has long been the standard of care for percutaneous radiotherapy. The development of intensity-modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) and image-guided radiation therapy (IGRT) have increased the precision of treatment, thus, reducing side effects and allowing dose escalation. LDR (low dose rate) and HDR (high dose rate) brachytherapy alone or in combination are a treatment option in localized prostate cancer with a distinct side effect profile. The roles of proton therapy and stereotactic radiotherapy should be further investigated in prospective trials.
