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 recommendations on carrying out a multiparametric magnetic resonance imaging (mpMRI) for the primary diagnostics and during active surveillance of prostate cancer, include as a consequence an image-guided sampling from conspicuous areas. In doing so, the information on the localization provided by mpMRI is used for a targeted biopsy of the area suspected of being a tumor. The targeted sampling is mainly performed under sonographic control and after fusion of MRI and ultrasound but can also be (mostly in special cases) carried out directly in the MRI scanner. In an ultrasound-guided biopsy, it is vital to coregister the MR images with the ultrasound images (segmentation of the contour of the prostate and registration of suspect findings). This coregistration can either be carried out cognitively (transfer by the person performing the biopsy alone) or software based. Each method shows specific advantages and disadvantages in the prioritization between diagnostic accuracy and resource expenditure.
