Transperineal Parallel Biopsy of the Prostate: A New Approach of Tissue Sampling for Precision Medicine.
Article in International journal of general medicine, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
purposeThrough an observational study to present a new approach for obtaining high-quality samples for the targeted therapy of prostate cancer. PATIENTS AND
methodsParallel biopsy, which was defined as collecting the tissue from the same site by two biopsies, was performed on patients with elevated PSA. Each tissue was stained by ink to identify the pathological characteristics, including Gleason score and tumor tissue ratio. Kendall tau-b test and intraclass correlation coefficient test were used to compare the consistency between each paired sample. Then, based on the pathology of the biopsies, high-quality tissues would be selected for sequencing, and PyClone model was used to track the clonal evolution.
resultsIn total, 252 pairs of biopsies were collected. The consistency of Gleason score between each paired biopsy is 0.777 (
conclusionParallel biopsy is a reliable approach to collect high-quality tissue and shows potential application in precision medicine.
