A Canadian center's experience on whole-gland salvage therapy for radio-recurrent prostate cancer with various modalities.
Review in Canadian Urological Association journal = Journal de l'Association des urologues du Canada, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Salvage radical prostatectomy for localized radio-recurrent prostate cancer has historically been associated with significant morbidity. Prospectively collected data long-term data on salvage whole-gland cryoablation and, to a lesser extent, high-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU), have shown they are viable treatment alternatives. This article chronicles the experience (cryoablation, n=187; HIFU, n=81) in a high-volume Canadian center and reviews the literature on other salvage ablative therapies. Whole-gland salvage ablation has yielded oncologic results comparable to those of salvage prostatectomy, with cancer-specific survival and metastatic-free survival of approximately 80%, and biochemical disease-free survival of 35%. Freedom from androgen deprivation therapy was 49% at 12 years. Improved ablative technologies and functional diagnostic imaging modalities have rendered focal salvage ablation feasible in selected patients. Preliminary oncologic and functional results of focal salvage ablation using several new ablative technologies are also reviewed in this article.
