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

Radical prostatectomy (RP) combined with pelvic lymph node dissection (PLND) is the first step in multimodal treatment of prostate cancer (PCa) without distant metastases. For a long time, the surgical resection range has been highly dependent on the surgeon's visualization and experience with preoperative imaging. With the rapid development of prostate-specific membrane antigen positron emission tomography and single-photon emission computed tomography (PSMA-PET and PSMA-SPECT), PSMA-targeted surgery has been introduced for a more accurate pathological diagnosis and complete resection of positive surgical margins (PSMs) and micro-lymph node metastases (LNMs). We reviewed PSMA-targeted surgeries, including PSMA-PET-guided prostatic biopsy (PSMA-TB), PSMA-targeted radio-guided surgery (PSMA-RGS), PSMA-targeted fluorescence-guided surgery (PSMA-FGS), and multi-modality/multi-targeted PSMA-targeted surgery. We also discuss the strengths and challenges of PSMA-targeted surgery, and propose that PSMA-targeted surgery could be a great addition to existing surgery protocols, thereby improving the accuracy and convenience of surgery for primary and recurrent PCa in the near future.
