A Case Report on Atypical Presentation of Metastatic Prostate Cancer.
Article in Cureus, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
The lung is a common site for metastatic cancers such as colorectal and breast cancer but an uncommon site for prostate cancer. The treatment modalities for primary and metastatic lung malignancies differ considerably; therefore, it is essential to distinguish between them. Here, we present a patient with solitary metastatic lung cancer with prostate as the primary source, which was initially considered a primary lung nodule considering his risk factors. The patient later developed other lung nodules and successfully underwent resection of these nodules with no bone involvement at the time. Follow-up computed tomography (CT) of the chest revealed two other new lung nodules and pleural effusion, and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the pelvis showed bone involvement. The patient was started on gonadotropin-releasing hormone therapy with subsequent downtrending prostate-specific antigen (PSA). Although uncommon, prostate cancer can metastasize to the lungs; hence, clinicians must always have a high index of suspicion when a patient presents with a lung nodule, especially with a prior history of prostate cancer.
