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

objectivePelvic lymph node metastasis (PLNM) at the time of radical prostatectomy (RP) portends an unfavorable prognosis in prostate cancer patients. Conventional and advanced imaging remains limited in its ability to detect PLNM. We sought to evaluate the combination of a genomic classifier Decipher with Prostate Imaging Reporting and Data System (PI-RADS) scores in improving the detection of PLNM.

methodsA retrospective review was performed of patients whom underwent RP, Decipher analysis, and pre-operative prostate MRI. Categorical variables were compared using Pearson chi-squareχ2 tests. Quantitative variables were assessed with Wilcoxon rank-sum tests. Multivariable logistic regression was used to identify predictors of PLNM on final pathology.

resultsIn total, 202 patients were included in the analysis, 23 of whom (11%) had PLNM. Patients with PLNM had higher median Decipher scores (0.73) than those without PLNM (0.61; p = 0.003). Patients with PLNM were more likely to demonstrate PI-RADS scores ≥ 4 (96%) than those without PLNM (74%; p = 0.012). Logistic regression demonstrated an interaction between Decipher score with PI-RADS score ≥4 (OR = 20.41; 95% CI, 2.10-198.74; p = 0.009) The combination demonstrated an area under the curve (AUC) of 0.73 (95% CI, 0.63-0.82; p < 0.001) for predicting PLNM.

conclusionThe combination of elevated Decipher genomic score (≥ 0.6) and clinically significant PI-RADS score (≥ 4) is associated with PLNM at the time of RP in a modern high-risk cohort of patients with PCaprostate cancer. ADVANCES IN KNOWLEDGE: Prostate MRI and genomic testing may help identify patients with adverse pathology.
