The association between serum lipid profile and the prostate cancer risk and aggressiveness.
Article in Frontiers in oncology, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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: This study aims to evaluate the association of serum lipid profile on prostate cancer (PC) risk and aggressiveness. Methods: Men who underwent prostate biopsy between January 2005 and December 2015 were retrospectively analyzed. The association between lipid profile and the risk, stage, and Gleason grade group (GG) of the PC were investigated. Sensitivity analysis was conducted using univariate and multivariate quantile analysis for lipide profile on the risk and stage of PC. Results: Of the 1740 study populations, 720 men (41.4%) were diagnosed as PC. From multivariate logistic regression analysis, age, prostate specific antigen, triglyceride (odds ratio (OR):1.05, confidence interval (CI):1.03-1.07, p-value<0.001) significantly increased PC risk, while total cholesterol (OR:0.96, CI:0.92-0.99, p-value=0.011) significantly decreased the PC risk. The increase of serum triglyceride increased the risk of both of locally advanced (OR:1.03, CI:1.00-1.07, p-value=0.025) and metastatic PC (OR:1.14, CI:1.04-1.25, p-value=0.004). The increase of serum triglyceride increased the risk of GG2-3 (OR:1.03, CI:1.00-1.06, p-value=0.027) and GG4-5 (OR:1.04, CI:1.01-1.08, p-value=0.027). Univariate quartile analysis founded serum triglyceride increasing risk of locally advanced disease than organ confined disease. (OR: 1.00, 1.25, 2.04, 4.57 for 1 Conclusions: This study findings suggested increased in triglyceride level increased the risk PC. Increased in triglyceride level also associated with aggressive presentation of PC, with higher stage and GG.
