Effect of Serelys Homme on the Incidence and Severity of Vasomotor Symptoms and Quality-of-Life Impairments in Patients Receiving Hormone Therapy and Radiation for Localized Prostate Cancer: Results of the ESCULAPE Phase 2 Prospective Study.

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: Androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) may cause vasomotor symptoms (VMS) including hot flushes and sweats, which affect quality of life (QoL). Serelys Homme is a nonhormonal and a natural origin product that could affect VMS in men undergoing ADT. We evaluated effectiveness and tolerance of Serelys Homme administration on VMS and QoL of patients undergoing combined ADT and radiation therapy for prostate cancer. Methods and Materials: Between April 2017 and July 2019, 103 patients were screened, and 53 patients refused to participate in the study. Serelys Homme therapy consisted of a daily administration of 2 tablets for 6 months. Patients were evaluated with 4 questionnaires including the adapted Modified Rankin Scale (adapted-MRS), European Quality of Life 5 Dimensions 3 Level Version (EQ 5D3L), Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy-Prostate (FACT-P), and Hot Flash Related Daily Interference Scale (HFRDIS) at day 0, day 90 (D90), and day 180 (D180). Statistical evaluation was performed using the Wilcoxon rank sign test. A 2-sided Results: Among the 50 patients, 4 withdrew after inclusion. All patients (n = 46) received either postoperative or definitive radiation therapy combined with a short (n = 15) or long course (n = 31) of ADT. Serelys Homme administration significantly decreased the rate of patients who had ≥7 VMS and 3 to 6 VMS per day. The number of patients presenting with moderate or severe VMS was decreased at D90 ( Conclusions: This study demonstrated effectiveness and excellent tolerance of Serelys Homme. We observed a significant reduction of the frequency, duration, and intensity of hot flushes and sweats induced by ADT. Serelys Homme increased QoL scores. These encouraging results open the prospect to further studies and Serelys Homme use in patients undergoing ADT for prostate cancer.
