Magnetic Resonance Elastography for the Detection and Classification of Prostate Cancer.
Article in Cancers, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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
We investigated the feasibility of magnetic resonance elastography (MRE) using a pelvic acoustic driver for the detection and classification of prostate cancer (PCa). A total of 75 consecutive patients (mean age, 70; range, 56-86) suspected of having PCa and who underwent multi-parametric MRI including MRE and subsequent surgical resection were included. The analyzed regions consisted of cancer (n = 69), benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) (n = 70), and normal parenchyma (n = 70). A histopathologic topographic map served as the reference standard for each region. One radiologist and one pathologist performed radiologic-pathologic correlation, and the radiologist measured stiffness values in each region of interest on elastograms automatically generated by dedicated software. Paired t-tests were used to compare stiffness values between two regions. ROC curve analysis was also used to extract a cutoff value between two regions. The stiffness value of PCa (unit, kilopascal (kPa); 4.9 ± 1.1) was significantly different to that of normal parenchyma (3.6 ± 0.3,
