The value of adjusted PSAD in prostate cancer detection in the Chinese population.
Article in Frontiers in oncology, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
Objective: To investigate the value of adjusted prostate-specific antigen density (PSAD Methods: Data from 410 patients who underwent transrectal ultrasound-guided prostate biopsy were retrospectively analyzed in Beijing Tsinghua Changgung Hospital between November 2014 and March 2024. All patients were divided into PCa and benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) groups according to pathological results. Multivariate logistic regression analyses were performed to evaluate the odd ratios (ORs) of predictors for PCa occurrence. Receiver operating characteristic curves were plotted, and the area under the curve (AUC) values were used to assess and compare the diagnostic accuracies of total PSA (tPSA), free-to-total (f/t) PSA, free PSA (fPSA), PSAD, and PSAD Results: There were 166 patients in the PCa group and 244 in the BPH group. Multivariate analyses demonstrated that PSAD was positively correlated with the presence of PCa, with the highest OR value among all PSA-related parameters (OR = 19.075, Conclusion: PSAD
