Selection and monitoring of patients with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer for treatment with radium-223.
Review in Clinical & translational oncology : official publication of the Federation of Spanish Oncology Societies and of the National Cancer Institute of Mexico, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Despite the improvement provided by androgenic suppression in the treatment of prostate cancer, most of tumors develop resistance to castration. However, new therapies have demonstrated an increase in patient survival such as radium-223 (Ra-223), an alpha emitter and calcium mimetic with the capability of targeting osteoblastic metastatic lesions. According to results of the ALSYMPCA phase III trial, Ra-223 has demonstrated its activity by improving symptoms and survival of patients with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC), symptomatic bone metastases, and no known visceral metastatic disease, without interfering with subsequent treatments. This review examines the key evidence to establish the best patient selection criteria to use Ra-223, how to assess the response to treatment, treatment-related toxicity, and follow-up, but also current research regarding imaging techniques and biomarkers to assess the efficacy of Ra-223. Finally, we briefly describe the clinical trials that are currently ongoing with Ra-223.
