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

purposeMetastatic prostate cancer (mPCa) rarely occurs under the age of 60, and we aim to evaluate the clinical outcomes and prognosis of mPCa patients ≤ 60-year-old.

methodsTwo thousand and eighty-three patients were treated with mPCa between April 2003 and May 2020. Clinicopathological characteristics between groups, biochemical recurrence (BCR)-free survival, and overall survival (OS) were assessed. Subgroup analysis was performed on patients ≤ 60 years. Multivariable cox regression was used for survival analysis.

resultsThree hundred and seventy-five patients (> 60 years: older) and 115 patients (≤ 60 years: young) were identified. 5-year BCR-free survival rates were 38.8% in young and 74.1% in older group (p < 0.001). 5-year OS were 88.1% in young and 96.5% in older group (p = 0.006). The significant factor associated with BCR was age > 60 (hazard ratio [HR] = 0.67, 95% confidence [CI]: 0.36-0.94, p = 0.017). The significant predictors of OS were age > 60 (HR 0.40, CI 0.18-0.91, p = 0.028) and local definitive treatment (HR 0.29, CI 0.13-0.64, p = 0.002). For the subgroup analysis, median BCR-free survival was significantly shorter in younger (≤ 56) group (14 mo vs. 27 mo, p = 0.026), and the median OS was significantly different (p = 0.048).

conclusionsIn mPCa patients ≤ 60-year-old, BCR occurs earlier and OS is significantly reduced than older patients. Therefore, special caution is mandatory when treating these mPCa patients.
