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

backgroundIn recent years, multiparametric magnetic resonance imaging (mpMRI) of the prostate has gained importance and plays a crucial role in both personalized diagnostics and increasingly in the treatment planning for patients with prostate cancer.

objectiveThe aim of this study is to present established and innovative applications of MRI in the diagnosis and treatment of localized prostate cancer, evaluating their strengths and weaknesses. Furthermore, it will explore alternative approaches and compare them in a comprehensive manner. MATERIALS AND

methodsA systematic literature review on the application of mpMRI for biopsy and therapy planning was conducted.

resultsThe integration of modern imaging techniques, especially mpMRI, into the diagnostic algorithm has revolutionized prostate cancer diagnosis. MRI and MRI-guided biopsy detect more significant prostate cancer, with the potential to reduce unnecessary biopsies and the diagnosis of clinically insignificant carcinomas. In addition, MRI provides crucial information for risk stratification and treatment planning in prostate cancer patients, both before radical prostatectomy and during active surveillance.

conclusionMultiparametric MRI offers significant added value for the diagnosis and treatment of localized prostate cancer. The advancement of MRI analysis, such as the implementation of artificial intelligence algorithms, holds the potential for further enhancing imaging diagnostics.
