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

backgroundTo investigate the efficacy and toxicity of 68Ga-PSMA-HBED-CC (

methodsA total of 23 prostate cancer patients with biochemical relapse, of which 13 were castration sensitive (CS) and 10 castration resistant (CR), were treated with intensity-modulated and image-guided RT (IMRT-IGRT) on ≤3 metastases detected by

resultsA total of 38 metastases were treated. The involved sites were pelvic bone (n = 16), pelvic lymph nodes (n = 11), paraaortic lymph nodes (n = 6), ribs (n = 3) and vertebral body (n = 2). The median PSA prior to RT was 1.1 ng/mL (range 0.1-29.0 ng/mL). A median dose of 43.5 Gy (range 30-64 Gy) was delivered by IMRT-IGRT in 12-27 fractions. At a median follow-up of 7 months (range 2-17 months), 19 patients (83%) were in remission. Four patients (17%) developed distant recurrences. The actuarial 1-year LC, PFS and OS rates were 100, 51 (95% CI 8-83%) and 100%. Univariate analysis demonstrated a statistically significantly better PFS in CS patients as compared to CR patients (1-year PFS 67 vs. 0%, p < 0.01). One patient experienced grade 2 acute gastrointestinal toxicity. Grade 3 or more toxicity events were not observed.

conclusionsBy providing optimal LC, low toxicity and a promising PFS in CS patients, the current retrospective study illustrated that
