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

purposeProstate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA)-based images, which visually quantify PSMA expression, are used to determine prostate cancer micrometastases. This study evaluated whether a circulating tumor cell (CTC)-based transcript platform, including PSMA mRNA, could help identify potential prognostic markers in prostate cancer. EXPERIMENTAL

designWe prospectively enrolled 21 healthy individuals and 247 patients with prostate cancer [localized prostate cancer (LPCa), n = 94; metastatic hormone-sensitive prostate cancer (mHSPC), n = 44; and metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC), n = 109]. The mRNA expression of six transcripts [PSMA, prostate-specific antigen (PSA), AR, AR-V7, EpCAM, and KRT 19] from CTCs was measured, and their relationship with biochemical recurrence (BCR) in LPCa and mCRPC progression-free survival (PFS) rate in mHSPC was assessed. PSA-PFS and radiological-PFS were also calculated to identify potential biomarkers for predicting androgen receptor signaling inhibitor (ARSI) and taxane-based chemotherapy resistance in mCRPC.

resultsCTC detection rates were 75.5%, 95.3%, and 98.0% for LPCa, mHSPC, and mCRPC, respectively. In LPCa, PSMA [hazard ratio (HR), 3.35; P = 0.028) and PSA mRNA (HR, 1.42; P = 0.047] expressions were associated with BCR. Patients with mHSPC with high PSMA (HR, 4.26; P = 0.020) and PSA mRNA (HR, 3.52; P = 0.042) expressions showed significantly worse mCRPC-PFS rates than those with low expression. Increased PSA and PSMA mRNA expressions were significantly associated with shorter PSA-PFS and radiological PFS in mCPRC, indicating an association with drug resistance.

conclusionsPSMA and PSA mRNA expressions are associated with BCR in LPCa. In advanced prostate cancer, PSMA and PSA mRNA can also predict rapid progression from mHSPC to mCRPC and ARSI or taxane-based chemotherapy resistance.
