Lost opportunities: the underutilization of castrate-resistant prostate cancer treatment in real-world settings.

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
Background: Various treatment regimens are now available for metastatic castrate-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC). This work evaluates the real-world prescription patterns of CRPC in a large tertiary care center and the factors influencing them. Methods: Health records of 330 patients with Results: The median age was 74 years [interquartile range (IQR), 67-80 years] at diagnosis of CRPC. At CRPC, beyond androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) monotherapy, 70.3% (n=232) of patients received at least one additional line, 21.5% (n=71) received two lines, and 5.5% (n=18) received three lines of systemic treatments. As first-line treatment, novel hormonal agents (NHAs) were the most prescribed at 57.6% (n=190). The likelihood of receiving treatment was associated with age <65 years [odds ratio (OR) 2.08, P=0.01, 95% confidence interval (CI): 1.22-3.57] and lower Charlson Comorbidity Index (CCI) score (OR: 2.62, P=0.04, 95% CI: 1.07-6.45), treatment intensification for HSPC (OR 2.45, P=0.04, 95% CI: 1.07-5.62) and primary physician being an oncologist (OR 1.59, P=0.04, 95% CI: 1.04-2.48). Patients who received additional treatment lines at CRPC had longer survival (median: 23 Conclusions: More than one in four patients do not receive any additional treatment line beyond ADT monotherapy and have worse survival outcomes. Health status, prescribing physician, and treatment at HSPC appear to affect prescription patterns at the CRPC stage.
