Salvage external beam radiotherapy after HIFU failure in localized prostate cancer: A single institution experience.
Article in Frontiers in oncology, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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
Purpose/objectives: High-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) remains investigational as primary treatment for localized prostate cancer but is sometimes offered to select patients. At HIFU failure, data guiding salvage treatment is limited to small retrospective series with short follow-up. We evaluated our institutional experience using salvage radiation therapy (SRT) after HIFU failure. Materials/methods: We conducted a retrospective analysis of patients with local failure post-HIFU who received salvage image-guided external beam radiation therapy (EBRT) delivered Results: From 2013 to 2018, 12 out of 96 patients treated with primary HIFU received SRT Conclusions: To our knowledge, we report one of the largest series on contemporary SRT post HIFU failure. We show that SRT is feasible, effective and carries no additional acute or delayed toxicity.
