Magnetic resonance-ultrasound fusion prostate biopsy in the diagnosis of prostate cancer.
Review in Urologic oncology, 2016. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 12 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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 advent of multiparametric magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) has ushered in a new era for urologists who perform prostate needle biopsies. The fusion of MRI with transrectal ultrasound (US) allows the direct targeting of suspicious lesions, which has been shown to improve the performance of conventional random biopsy techniques by increasing detection of clinically relevant disease while also decreasing detection of low-risk cancer. However, as with any new technology, many questions regarding effectiveness, reproducibility, and generalizability still remain. In this review, we (1) provide a summary of the various sequences that comprise a MRI of the prostate; (2) evaluate the 3 different ways of incorporating MRI into targeted biopsies of the prostate including in-bore MRI-guided biopsy, cognitive fusion, and device-mediated fusion; (3) review the sensitivity of MR-US fusion in the detection of clinically significant and clinically insignificant disease; and (4) review the barriers to the widespread implementation of MR-US fusion into everyday practice. Whereas other articles in this issue of Urologic Oncology Seminars will discuss other aspects of MRI in the management of prostate cancer, the purpose of this article is to provide an overview of MR-US fusion biopsies in the diagnosis of prostate cancer.
