Prostate Cancer Lesions by Zone and Race: Does Multiparametric MRI Demonstrate Racial Difference in Prostate Cancer Lesions for African American Men?
Article in Current oncology (Toronto, Ont.), 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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
African American (AA) men have increased risk of prostate cancer diagnosis and mortality, but the cause remains unknown. MRI fusion improves diagnosis of localized prostate cancer, particularly in anterior lesions; however, cost and access are limited in a community practice setting. By utilizing a diverse cohort of veterans with equal access to care in a single payer system, we describe prostate cancer detection. We queried a prospectively maintained institutional review board-approved database of men undergoing prostate biopsy for untreated prostate cancer. We included all consecutive patients from October 2017 to February 2020. Statistical analysis including Kaplan-Meier Curves, Fisher's exact test, and Forest plot was performed. From 246 consecutive patients, 166 were AA and 80 were non-AA. There were similar distributions of PSA, PSAD, and number of targetable lesions between the AA and non-AA cohort (
