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

Transformation of primary prostate adenocarcinoma to squamous cell carcinoma after initial treatment with chemotherapy and hormonal therapy is extremely rare and typically results in rapid treatment-refractory disease progression and death. Here, we present a case of a 64-year-old man who was initially diagnosed with metastatic prostate adenocarcinoma (positive PSA and NKX3.1 stains, total PSA 747.2 ng/ml) to the thoracic spine (T8) in 2019. The patient received androgen deprivation therapy and chemotherapy with good response (PSA 2.53 ng/ml). In 2022, the patient had a tumor resection from the left humerus with a consequent fracture. Pathology showed pure squamous carcinoma without any adenocarcinoma component (PSA and NKX3.1 stains negative and weak p504s stain, PSA 19.82 ng/ml). Given the patient's history of metastatic prostate adenocarcinoma and no history of any other malignancies, a diagnosis of squamous carcinoma transformed from prostate adenocarcinoma was rendered. The patient passed away in 2023. Molecular profiling identified the same
