MRI detected extaprostatic extension (EPE) in prostate cancer: Do all T3a patients have the same outcomes?
Article in Clinical and translational radiation oncology, 2020. 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
MRI-detected T3a prostate cancer is a heterogeneous disease. This post-hoc analysis of a prospective trial found that patients with T3a disease presenting obliteration of the recto-prostatic angle, contact-asymmetry of neuro-vascular bundle and periprostatic fat invasion, may be at higher risk of biochemical failure and metastases.
