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

purpose of reviewTo summarize the role of prostate MRI in the assessment and treatment of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) and associated lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS). RECENT

findingsBPH/LUTS is a very common source of morbidity in aging men. mpMRI has become an increasingly popular modality for prostate imaging due to its ability to provide exceptional anatomic detail. This has allowed for MRI classification of BPH and detailed assessment of response to various BPH treatment modalities, including simple prostatectomy and transurethral resection of the prostate as well as newer methods like UroLift and prostatic artery embolization. MRI will continue to be a useful tool in the diagnosis and management of BPH/LUTS and provides useful information about the efficacy of a variety of available treatment options. Further studies are needed to fully characterize the effects of newer BPH interventions on mpMRI.
