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 present urologists with guidance on how to approach and manage lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) in patients who have undergone radiation therapy (RT) for prostate cancer. RECENT

findingsThere are few studies that specifically examine treatment approaches for LUTS in patients who have undergone prostate cancer RT. LUTS after prostate RT are unique when compared to de novo LUTS. Understanding these distinctions is important for urologists' practice as well as patients' quality of life. Discussion of the risks and management of post-RT LUTS should be included in the shared decision-making process when counseling patients on various treatment options for prostate cancer. Further studies evaluating treatments for storage and voiding symptoms after RT are needed to help guide future care.
