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

Neuroendocrine differentiation (NED) of prostate cancer represents an acknowledged predictor of resistant and more aggressive disease. NED can be functionally exploited in vivo using PET/CT imaging with somatostatin analogs radiolabeled with 68Ga. Many previous reports have shown that 18F-FDG PET/CT should also be used in cases such as guiding management, as NED is systematically associated with increased glycolysis. We hereby discuss the case of a metastatic prostate cancer patient in which 68Ga-Dotatoc PET/CT revealed the occurrence of NED with low FDG-avidity.
