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
Prostate cancer is one of the most frequent cancers in males and commonly a disease of the older population, but it is increasingly seen among older adolescents and young adults. The common sites of metastasis of prostatic carcinoma are bones and regional lymph nodes. Testicular metastasis from prostatic carcinoma is an infrequent presentation. We report a case of a young patient with prostatic carcinoma and multiple metastases, including bilateral testis. A 40-year-old male presented with lower urinary tract voiding symptoms and back pain for three months. His prostate-specific antigen level was elevated at 13.98 ng/ml. A magnetic resonance imaging of the prostate revealed two PIRADS V lesions and metastases in multiple bones and regional lymph nodes. On follow up, the patient complained of bilateral testicular swelling and ultrasound scan of the testes revealed bilateral testicular metastasis. Fine needle aspiration cytology of right-side testicular lesion revealed malignant cells compatible with metastasis from prostate cancer. Later involvement of multilevel vertebral and skull metastases was identified by magnetic resonance imaging. A T
