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

Methods for diagnosing prostate cancer (PCa) are developing in the direction of imaging. Advanced ultrasound examination modes include micro-Doppler, computerized-transrectal ultrasound, elastography, contrast-enhanced ultrasound and microultrasound. When two or more of these modes are used in PCa diagnosis, the combined technique is called multiparameter ultrasound (mp-US). Mp-US provides complementary information to multiparameter magnetic resonance imaging (mp-MRI) for diagnosing PCa. At present, no study has attempted to combine the characteristics of different ultrasound modes with advanced classification systems similar to the PIRADS system in mpMRI for the diagnosis of PCa. As an imaging method, mp-US has great potential in the diagnosis of PCa.
