Prognostic impact of bone metastatic volume beyond vertebrae and pelvis in patients with metastatic hormone-sensitive prostate cancer.
Article in International journal of clinical oncology, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers.
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
backgroundAlthough bone metastasis beyond the vertebrae and pelvis has been a key factor in prognostic models of metastatic hormone-sensitive prostate cancer (mHSPC), the clinical significance of it is still unclear. The present study evaluated the prognostic impact of the volume of bone metastasis beyond the vertebrae and pelvis on the outcomes of mHSPC and created an ideal risk classification based on it.
methodsWe retrospectively reviewed 197 patients with mHSPC who were treated with combined androgen blockade as the initial treatment between June 2003 and October 2019. We calculated the bone scan index (BSI), including the BSI beyond the vertebrae and pelvis (bBSI), using BONENAVI, and investigated the association between the BSI and the overall survival (OS) of mHSPC.
resultsAccording to the CHAARTED criteria, 91 and 106 patients were classified into the low- and high-volume groups, respectively. Of the 79 patients who did not have visceral metastasis in the high-volume group, those with a bBSI ≤ 0.27 (n = 16) showed a favorable OS, as did those in the low-volume group. The modified CHAARTED high-volume group (presence of visceral metastases or 4 bone lesions with a bBSI > 0.27) showed a significantly shorter OS than others, with a hazard ratio (HR) of 4.69 (p < 0.001), which was higher than that observed with the original CHAARTED criteria (HR = 4.33).
conclusionsOur data suggested that considering the volume of bone metastasis beyond the vertebrae and pelvis may help to improve the accuracy of risk classification. Further large-scale prospective studies are needed to validate our findings.
