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

background and purposeSalvage radiotherapy (SRT) is the main potentially curative treatment option for prostate cancer patients with post-prostatectomy PSA progression. Improved diagnostics by positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT) can lead to adjustments in treatment procedures (e.g. target volume of radiotherapy, androgen deprivation therapy). We analyzed the impact of PATIENTS AND

methodsWe retrospectively analyzed 76 patients with biochemical recurrence after radical prostatectomy in whom SRT was planned after

resultsWithout considering the PET/CT, all 76 patients would have been assigned to RT, 60 (79%) to the bed of the prostate and seminal vesicles alone, and 16 (21%) also to the pelvic lymph nodes because of histopathologic risk factors. Uptake indicative for tumor recurrence in
