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

The main treatment modalities for localized prostate cancer are surgery and radiation. Surgery removes the whole prostate gland, whereas with radiation therapy the irradiated prostate remains within the patient's body. Biomarkers specific to the prostate gland should become undetectable after surgery, but this is not the case when radiation therapy is used, as residual prostate cells may still be metabolically active. Here, we review the role of tumor markers of toxicity and response to radiation therapy in patients with prostate cancer, including prostate specific antigen, human kallikrein 2, osteopontin, prostate cancer associated 3, citrulline, and others.
