Prostate Cancer Diagnosis Using Urine Sediment Analysis-Based α-Methylacyl-CoA Racemase Score: A Single-Center Experience.

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
To evaluate the diagnostic value of α-methylacyl-CoA racemase (AMACR) score in Han Chinese patients with prostate cancer (PCa) through urine sediment analysis. We collected 292 urine sediment samples after digital rectal examination. Levels of AMACR and prostate-specific antigen (PSA) messenger RNA (mRNAs) were evaluated by quantitative real time-polymerase chain reaction. The diagnostic value of AMACR score was assessed by receiver-operating characteristic analysis (ROC), Mann-Whitney test, logistic regression analysis and decision curve analysis. In all patients (n = 292), the area under the curve (AUC) for serum PSA, AMACR score, and a combinative model of these 2 parameters were 0.745 (95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.691-0.794), 0.753 (95% CI: 0.700-0.802), and 0.784 (95% CI: 0.732-0.830). No statistical difference was found between AMACR score and serum PSA (
