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

Background: In recent years, site-directed therapies (SDTs) targeting progressive lesions in patients with oligometastatic prostate cancer have attracted attention. However, whether they effectively treat oligoprogressive castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC) remains unclear. Here, we investigated the efficacy of SDT in patients with oligoprogressive CRPC and identified prognostic factors. Methods: We reviewed 59 patients with oligoprogressive CRPC who underwent SDT targeting prostate or metastatic lesions between April 2014 and March 2022. We evaluated the associations between several pretreatment clinical variables and treatment procedures and a >50% prostate-specific antigen (PSA) response, progression-free survival (PFS), and time to next treatment (TTNT). Results: A PSA response of >50% was observed in 66% of patients. The median PFS and TTNT were 8.3 months and 9.9 months, respectively. Patients with PSA doubling time ≥6 months showed a higher >50% PSA response rate (87% vs. 45%; Conclusion: PSA doubling time of ≥6 months may be a key indicator of the favorable efficacy of SDT for oligoprogressive CRPC.
