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

backgroundBlack men and men with end-stage kidney disease have lower rates of treatment and higher mortality for prostate cancer. We studied the interaction of end-stage kidney disease (ESKD) with Black race for treatment rates and mortality for men with prostate cancer. METHODS AND

resultsWe included 516 Black and 551 White men with ESKD before prostate cancer 22,299 Black men, and 141,821 White men without ESKD who were 40 years or older from the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End-Results-Medicare data (2004-2016). All Black men with or without ESKD and White men with ESKD had higher prostate-specific antigen levels at diagnosis than White men without ESKD. Black men with ESKD had the lowest rates for treatment in both local and advanced stages of prostate cancer (age-adjusted risk ratio: 0.76, 95% Confidence Interval (CI): 0.71-0.82 for local stage and age-adjusted risk ratio: 0.82, 95% CI: 0.76-0.9 for advanced stages) compared to White men without ESKD. Compared to White men without ESKD, prostate cancer-specific mortality was higher in White men with ESKD for both local and advanced stages (age-adjusted hazard ratio: 1.8, 95% CI: 1.2-2.8 and HR: 1.6, 95% CI: 1.2-2.2) and it was higher for ESKD Black men only in advanced stage prostate cancer (age-adjusted hazard ratio: 2.4, 95% CI: 1.5-3.6).

conclusionOur findings suggest that having a comorbidity such as ESKD makes Black men more vulnerable to racial disparities in prostate cancer treatment and mortality.
