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

To evaluate the prognostic potential of the 2012 Briganti nomogram for pelvic lymph node invasion on disease progression after surgery in intermediate-risk (IR) prostate cancer (PCa) patients with favorable tumor grade (International Society of Urological Pathology grade group 1 or 2), eventually associated with adverse clinical features as PSA between 10 and 20 ng/mL and/or clinical stage T2b. All IR PCa patients treated with robot-assisted radical prostatectomy and eventually extended pelvic lymph node dissection at the Department of Urology of the Integrated University Hospital of Verona between 2013 and 2021, with the abovementioned features, and available follow-up were considered. The 2012 Briganti nomogram score was assessed both as a continuous and dichotomous variable, where a mean risk score of 4% was used a threshold. The independent predictor status of the nomogram score on disease progression defined as the occurrence of biochemical recurrence and/or metastatic progression was evaluated using the Cox regression analysis. Overall, 348 patients were enrolled in the study. Median (interquartile range) follow-up was 98 (83.5-112.4) months. At multivariable Cox regression analysis, PCa progression, which occurred in 65 (18.7%) cases, was independently predicted only by the 2012 Briganti nomogram score evaluated as a continuous variable, among all considered clinical features (HR 1.16; 95%CI 1.08-1.24; p < 0.001). In addition, patients presenting with a nomogram score ≥ 4% were more likely to experience disease progression even after adjustment for clinical (HR 2.22, 95%CI 1.02-4.79; p = 0.043) and pathological (HR 1.80; 95%CI 1.06-3.05; p = 0.031) factors. In the examined patient population, the 2012 Briganti nomogram predicted PCa progression after surgery. Accordingly, as the risk score increased, patients were more likely to progress, independently by the occurrence of adverse pathology in the surgical specimen. The 2012 Briganti nomogram score categorized according to the mean value allowed to identify prognostic subgroups.
