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

Glucocorticoids are a common class of adjuvant drugs for the treatment of castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC) combined with antitumour or antiandrogen agents. Glucocorticoids are administered clinically because they ameliorate toxic side effects and have inhibitory effects on adrenal androgen production, acting as a pituitary suppressant. However, their effects on prostate cancer cells especially the castration resistance prostate cancer cells are poorly defined. Glucocorticoids exert effects depend to a great extent on glucocorticoid receptor. In addition to a number of glucocorticoid receptor isoforms determined, it is found that the actions of glucocorticoids through GRα are influenced by other isoforms, such as GRβ and GRγ. Recently, studies found GR confers resistance to androgen deprivation therapy, and various glucocorticoids exert distinct efficacy in CRPC. In this review, we summarized the mechanisms of glucocorticoids and its clinical appliances on the basis of present evidence.
