The Effects of Statins on Prostate Cancer Patients Receiving Androgen Deprivation Therapy or Definitive Therapy: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis.
Review in Pharmaceuticals (Basel, Switzerland), 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 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
Mortality associated with statin use has been reported in prostate cancer (PCa) patients treated with androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) or definitive therapy in several observational studies, although the results have varied. This study aimed to analyze the association of statin use with all-cause mortality and cancer-specific mortality among PCa patients receiving ADT or definitive therapy as their primary treatment and to examine the effect of statin initiation (pre-ADT) timing on outcomes. A systematic literature search of PubMed, the Cochrane library, and Embase was conducted from database inception to 4 October 2021. In total, 12 eligible studies from 976 references were included in the final analysis. The results showed that statin use was associated with a significant reduction in the risks of all-cause mortality (hazard ratio (HR) = 0.73, 95% confidence interval (CI) = 0.64-0.84,
