Risks of prostate cancer and mortality in the city of Sharjah, United Arab Emirates.
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 3 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
Background: Prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) and prostate cancer (PCa) are common age-related diseases in men. According to World Health Organization (WHO), PCa is the second most common cancer among Emirati men. This study aimed to identify the risk factors associated with PCa and mortality in a cohort diagnosed with PCa between 2012 and 2021 in Sharjah, United Arab Emirates (UAE). Methods: The data collected in this retrospective case-control study included patient demographics and comorbidities, as well as PCa markers such as prostate-specific antigen (PSA), prostate volume, prostate-specific antigen density (PSAD), and Gleason scores. Risk factors for PCa were assessed using multivariate logistic regression analysis, and factors associated with all-cause mortality in PCa patients were evaluated using Cox-proportional hazard analysis. Results: Of the 192 cases analyzed in this study, 88 were diagnosed with PCa and 104 were diagnosed with BPH. Regarding risk factors for PCa, a higher risk of PCa was associated with age 65 or older (OR=2.76, 95% confidence interval (CI): 1.04-7.30; P=0.038) and serum PSAD greater than 0.1 ng/mL Conclusion: This study found that age 65 or older and serum PSAD greater than 0.1 ng/mL
