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

A 59-year-old man presented to the urology department with increased urinary urgency, frequency, poor urinary flow and unintentional weight loss. He had a 25-year history of idiopathic urticaria episodes which had increased in frequency over the previous 2 months. On investigation, he was found to have a raised prostate-specific antigen level. He was investigated further with a multiparametric MRI, a local anaesthetic transperineal prostate biopsy, a CT scan of chest/abdomen/pelvis with contrast and a nuclear medicine bone scan. He was diagnosed with metastatic adenocarcinoma of the prostate and commenced on a luteinising hormone-releasing hormone antagonist and referred to oncology for further treatment. Since starting treatment, he has experienced no further episodes of urticaria.
