[Chronopharmacology : The right timing can be crucial].
Review in Urologie (Heidelberg, Germany), 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
backgroundChronopharmacology takes into account, among other things, the circadian rhythm, a recurring, daily rhythm of biological functions that is significantly influenced by the day-night rhythm. Daily rhythm, diseases, and therapies influence each other: the circadian rhythm, among other factors, could influence the effect of pharmacological and nonpharmacological therapies, especially in urological oncology.
aimThis article focuses on the question of the optimal time for therapeutic interventions and considers relevant basics of chronobiological principles depending on possible biomarkers that could be targets of a future therapeutic approach.
resultsWith chronomodulated chemotherapy, cancer therapies are not only more tolerable, but also more effective. Effects and side effects of an active substance can change according to the circadian rhythm. Due to the introduction of particularly targeted, oral tumor therapies, a daily application would be organizationally possible, but further clinical studies are necessary for this. The internal clock could play an unexpected role, especially in hormone-dependent prostate cancer: the amount of the circadian factor Cry1 not only seems to increase in the advanced stage, but is also closely associated with a poorer prognosis. Epidemiological studies also show a connection between hormone-dependent tumors and the disruption of the rhythmic release of melatonin. Melatonin appears to be able to improve therapy as an adjunct to cancer therapy in some urological tumor entities.
