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

Circulating angiotensin type I receptor (AT1R) agonistic autoantibodies (AT1RaAbs) that bind and chronically activate the receptor have been associated with a number of diseases suggesting that while the autoantibodies are not necessarily causative they may promote disease progression. The prostate has a local renin angiotensin system. The current study examines associations between AT1RaAbs and prostate cancer (PCA), disease-free survival (DFS), overall survival (OS) and AT1RaAb effects on PCA cell phenotype. In a cross-sectional set of serum obtained from 151 men diagnosed with PCA, nonmalignant prostate disease or no disease, higher serum AT1RaAb levels were associated with PCA and non-organ confined PCA. The odds ratio for PCA was 6.3 (95% confidence interval 2.2 to 18) for a positive 1:1600 titer and 18 (95% confidence interval 6.9 to 45) at AT1RaAb levels > 1.04 μg/ml, (p < 0.0001). In a longitudinal set of pre-diagnosis samples from 109 men, DFS hazard ratios of 2.2 (95% confidence interval 1.4 to 3.5) and 1.6 (95% confidence interval 1.0 to 2.5) for most proximal to diagnosis and most distal to diagnosis samples, respectively, were found for high versus low AT1RaAb groups. Hazard ratios for OS in most proximal and distal samples were 2.4 (95% confidence interval 1.6 to 3.6) and 1.8 (95% confidence interval 1.1 to 2.8), respectively. Accelerated failure modeling of survival indicated that a 1 μg/ml increase in AT1RaAb levels was associated with a reduction of DFS and OS by 20% at the most proximal time point and by 15% at the most distal time points. Adjusting for age, did not affect the association with DFS in proximal samples but changed distal time point DFS and OS to a 10% decrease for every 1 μg/ml increase in AT1RaAb. Additional adjustments for body mass index, systolic blood pressure and prostate-specific antigen did not appreciably alter these associations. AT1RaAb treatment of PC3, DU145, and LNCaP cells significantly increased the maximal growth rate approximately 2-fold and invasiveness approximately 3-fold.
