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

Purpose: To evaluate the feasibility of the establishment of a more efficient hormone-induced canine benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) model. Methods: This prospective pilot study included a total of 16 male beagle dogs who underwent dihydrotestosterone and β-estradiol treatment after castration. They were randomly divided into three groups; eight beagles in group A with 1.0 ml hormone treatment, four beagles in group B with 0.8 ml hormone treatment, and four beagles in group C with 1.2 ml hormone treatment, each according to the table of random digit. The size of the prostate was measured using magnetic resonance imaging before and 4, 8, and 12 weeks after intramuscular injection of hormone drugs. Prostate size larger than 18 g was regarded as BPH in dogs. Results: Beagle dogs in all three groups were successfully modeled for BPH. The experimental group A (n = 8) was successfully modeled after 4 weeks of 1.0 ml hormone treatment, while the control group B (n = 4) was successfully modeled after 8 weeks of 0.8 ml hormone treatment, and the control group C (n = 4) was successfully modeled after 12 weeks of 1.2 ml hormone treatment. Conclusions: Appropriate dose of hormone can significantly shorten the time of successful establishment of canine BPH model, and an increase in hormone dosage can inhibit prostatic hyperplasia.
