An editorial on a comparison of care quality metrics between Black and White men with advanced prostate cancer in the IRONMAN registry.
Article in Cancer, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
This editorial highlights key findings from the manuscript entitled "Experience with the US health care system for Black and White patients with advanced prostate cancer" in the Cancer journal. Namely, the Black men and White men recruited in US sites for the International Registry for Men with Advanced Prostate Cancer (IRONMAN) registry reported similar and mainly affirmative responses for health care quality metrics on a survey. In non-National Cancer Institute-designated centers, the care was actually worse for the White participants than for the Black participants. The study's results suggest that clinical trial enrollment may be a way to improve health care quality and eliminate disparities for Black men. Whether this healthcare quality benefit extends beyond the few IRONMAN recruitment sites where Black men were recruited or beyond a few measures of healthcare quality remains to be seen.
