Relationship between oxidative balance score and prostate cancer: a cross-sectional study of NHANES, 1999-2010.

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.
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
objectiveFew studies have examined the relationship between systemic oxidative stress and prostate cancer (PCa) risk. This study aimed to explore potential correlations between PCa and oxidative balance score (OBS), which measures systemic oxidative stress.
designA cross-sectional study.
settingThe National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey.
participantsA total of 8156 individuals were included in this study. PRIMARY AND SECONDARY OUTCOME MEASURES: Weighted logistic regression with multivariable adjustment and restricted cubic splines (RCS) were used to assess the correlation between PCa and OBS. A sensitivity analysis was conducted specifically on patients with PCa to verify the results.
resultsThe prevalence of PCa was 2.55%. The multivariable logistic regression model revealed no correlation between OBS, dietary OBS, lifestyle OBS and PCa. Compared with the lowest quartile of OBS, the adjusted ORs for the highest quartile of OBS, dietary OBS and lifestyle OBS were 1.852 (95% CI 1.028-3.339), 1.565 (95% CI 0.841-2.913) and 1.575 (95% CI 0.915-2.710), respectively. Additionally, all p values for trend were greater than 0.05. Subgroup analysis revealed a consistent lack of association between OBS and PCa across various population settings. Furthermore, analysis using RCS confirmed this absence of association, indicating no significant relationship in either a linear or non-linear context. A sensitivity analysis focusing exclusively on patients with PCa showed a strong association (OR=2.737, p=0.008).
conclusionThis cross-sectional study reveals no significant association between systemic oxidative stress, measured by OBS, and PCa risk. Notably, a sensitivity analysis focusing solely on PCa patients suggested a potential link, warranting further investigation.
