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

introductionThe study aimed to assess the suitability of multiparametric magnetic resonance prostate imaging (mpMRI) in combination with clinical parameters [prostate-specific antigen (PSA), digital rectal examination (DRE)] in the identification of men at risk of the presence of prostate cancer (PCa) and clinically significant prostate cancer (csPCa, Gleason Score ≥3+4) in the cognitive fusion with systematic prostate biopsy. MATERIAL AND

methodsWe retrospectively evaluated a population of 215 biopsy - naive patients with a clinical suspicion of prostate cancer. The results of mpMRI, DRE, PSA and biopsy were analyzed. MpMRI of the prostate according to the Prostate Imaging Reporting and Data System (PI-RADS) v.2.0 scheme preceded cognitive fusion and systematic transrectal prostate biopsy. Uni- and multivariable logistic regression analysis (MVA) was used to identify the variables determining the risk of detecting PCa overall and csPCa.

resultsIn MVA, it was established that the combination of variables such as PSA level [odds ratio (OR) 1.195; p = 0.002], PI-RADS ≥3 (OR 7.7; p = 0.002), prostate volume (OR 0.98; p = 0.017) significantly determines the probability of PCa detection in biopsy, while for csPCa it is PSA level (OR 1.14; p = 0.004), DRE (+) (OR 5.75; p <0.001), PI-RADS ≥4 (OR 6.5; p <0.001). Analysis of mpMRI diagnostic value for PI-RADS ≥4 revealed better sensitivity (88.9% vs 82.6%) and better negative predictive value (NPV) (94.5% vs 82.4%) for detection of csPCa than for PCa overall.

conclusionsMpMRI results combining with DRE and PSA parameters help to identify men at high - or low risk of csPCa detection in the first - time biopsy.
