Prognostic Role of PSMA-Targeted Imaging in Metastatic Castration-Resistant Prostate Cancer: An Overview.
Review in Biomedicines, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
objectivesProstate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA) positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT) has gained a primary role in prostate cancer (PCa) imaging, overcoming conventional imaging and prostate-specific antigen (PSA) serum levels, and has recently emerged as a promising technique for monitoring therapy response in metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC) patients treated with novel hormonal therapy, taxanes, and radioligand therapy (RLT). In this review, we aim to provide an overview of the most relevant aspects under study and future prospects related to the prognostic role of PSMA PET/CT in mCRPC.
methodsA systematic literature search was performed in the following databases: MEDLINE, PubMed, and EMBASE databases. The study focused exclusively on English-language studies, excluding papers not pertinent to the topic.
resultsPSMA PET imaging offers a higher sensitivity and specificity than conventional imaging and provides accurate staging and efficient diagnosis of distant metastases. The data presented herein highlight the usefulness of PET in risk stratification, with a prognostic potential that can have a significant impact on clinical practice. Several prospective trials are ongoing and will shortly provide more evidence supporting the prognostic potential of PET PSMA data in this clinical scenario.
conclusionsCurrent evidence proves the prognostic role of PSMA PET/CT in different settings, with raising relevance also in the context of mCRPC.
