Granulomatous prostatitis mimicking prostate cancer in a patient with psoriatic arthritis: a case report.
Article in Future science OA, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Granulomatous prostatitis (GP) is an unusual and benign inflammatory condition of the prostate, where autoimmunity has been recognized as a key factor in the pathogenesis of GP in a subset of patients. Clinically, GP poses diagnostic challenges as it may strongly mimic prostate cancer from a clinical, biochemical and radiological point of view. The occurrence of GP in patients suffering from psoriasis, a systemic autoimmune disease, has never been investigated. We describe the case of GP in a patient with psoriatic arthritis presenting with an increased prostate specific antigen level, and evidence of a nodular lesion visualized by prostate multiparametric magnetic resonance imaging, which was highly suspicious for aggressive prostate cancer.
