Risk assessment of multi-factorial complications after transrectal ultrasound-guided prostate biopsy: a single institutional retrospective cohort study.
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 4 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
backgroundTransrectal ultrasound-guided prostate biopsy (TRUSPB) is widely used to diagnose prostate cancer (PCa). The aim of this study was to evaluate the risk of multi-factorial complications (febrile genitourinary tract infection (GUTI), rectal bleeding, and urinary retention) after TRUSPB.
methodsN = 2053 patients were Japanese patients undergoing transrectal or transperineal TRUSPB for suspicious of PCa. To assess risk of febrile GUTI adequately, the patients were divided into four groups: low-risk patients before starting a rectal culture, low-risk patients after starting a rectal culture, high-risk patients, and patients undergoing transperineal TRUSPB. Furthermore, to identify risk of rectal bleeding and urinary retention, patients were divided into transrectal and transperineal group.
resultsFebrile GUTI significantly decreased owing to risk classification. The frequency of rectal bleeding was 1.43% (transrectal: 25/1742), while it did not happen in transperineal group. The patients with rectal bleeding had a significantly lower body mass index (BMI) (P < 0.01). The frequency of urinary retention was 5.57% (transrectal: 97/1742), while it did not happen in transperineal group. The patients with urinary retention had a significantly higher prostate-specific antigen (PSA) (P = 0.01) in transrectal group.
conclusionsRisk classification, rectal swab culture, and selected antimicrobial prophylaxis for transrectal TRUSPB were extremely effective to reduce the risk of febrile GUTI. Furthermore, lower BMI and higher PSA were novel clinical predictors for rectal bleeding and urinary retention, respectively. When urologists perform transrectal TRUSPB to their patients, they can correctly understand and explain each complication risk to their patients based on these novel risk factors.
