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
introductionSalvage lymph node dissection (sLND) using novel imaging methods is an interesting alternative to treat lymph node (LN) metastasis after radical prostatectomy (RP); however, recommendations for using sLND as such are still being developed.
aimTo assess the clinical outcomes of prostate cancer (PCa) after fluorine-18-choline (18F-choline) positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT) guided sLND. MATERIAL AND
methodsTen patients who had undergone sLND under 18F-choline PET/CT guidance (positive nodes: median 1, range 1-3) and had biochemical recurrence or persistence of prostate-specific antigen (PSA: median PSA 2.05 ng/ml, range: 0.8-8.4) after RP were enrolled in this retrospective study. Complete biochemical response (cBCR) after salvage surgery was defined as PSA < 0.2 ng/ml.
resultsThe median follow-up time after salvage surgery was 33 months. The median PSA level 6 weeks after sLND and at the end of follow-up was 0.93 and 2.95 ng/ml, respectively. At 6 weeks after targeted sLND only 1 patient had cBCR, whereas a PSA decrease was noted in 7 patients. No patient had cBCR at the end of follow-up.
conclusionsLaparoscopic sLND in cases of LN metastatic PCa after RP is a feasible option with low morbidity. However, an initial cBCR occurs in a negligible proportion of patients, and a long-term response is unlikely to be achieved.
