1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Several life-prolonging therapies with diverse mechanisms of action (MoA) are available for the treatment of metastatic hormone-sensitive/castration-resistant prostate cancer, with many patients requiring multiple lines of therapy. Nevertheless, treatment optimization to further delay disease progression and improve overall survival remains an unmet need. Despite the number of agents with differing MoAs approved for advanced prostate cancer, many patients receive only one or two life-prolonging therapies. One strategy for enhancing the benefit of treatment for this aggressive disease is combining therapies with different MoAs (treatment intensification) early in the disease course, which may be more effective than administering therapies sequentially, yet still allow for subsequent sequential use of individual therapies to optimize patient outcomes. In this narrative review we discuss the rationale for combining
