[Local therapies for oligometastatic hormone-sensitive prostate cancer].
Review in Urologie (Heidelberg, Germany), 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
backgroundOligometastatic, hormone-sensitive prostate cancer (omHSPC) is increasingly diagnosed due to the implementation of molecular imaging. OmHSPC is mostly defined as a maximum of four bone metastases without visceral metastases on conventional imaging.
objectivesThis study highlights the existing evidence regarding local treatment of omHSPC, taking into account molecular imaging and modern therapies. MATERIALS AND
methodsNarrative review article based on expert consensus and national/international guideline recommendations, supported by a nonsystematic literature search in PubMed (MEDLINE). The authors consider the cited studies as the most significant works in this regard and these were selected to illustrate developments and fundamental concepts, without claiming completeness.
resultsInitially, the STAMPEDE study prospectively demonstrated an oncologic benefit of radiotherapy (RT) to the prostate in addition to androgen deprivation therapy for omHSPC. At 3 years, overall survival (OS) was 81% with RT versus 73% without RT (hazard ratio [HR] 0.68; 95% confidence interval [CI] 0.52-0.90; p = 0.007). However, this benefit was not observed in polymetastatic HSPC (HR 1.07; 95% CI 0.90-1.28; p = 0.4). In a study by Dai et al., local therapy for omHSPC was performed surgically in 85% of cases, also demonstrating an OS advantage (HR 0.44; 95% CI 0.24-0.81; p = 0.008).
conclusionOmHSPC should be treated using adjunctive RT. Preliminary prospective evidence shows comparable efficacy with prostatectomy. Modern systemic combination therapies challenge the role of local therapy.
