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

backgroundNumerous PSMA-based tracers are used for diagnostic prostate cancer imaging, but comprehensive comparisons between multiple ligands are lacking. This study aimed to compare physiological skeletal uptake and tracer uptake in commonly recommended PSMA reference regions across three different PSMA ligands in prostate cancer patients.

methodsA total of 281 prostate cancer patients were included. Using PET and SPECT imaging, target volumes of interest were defined via a semiautomatic method, and standardized uptake values (SUV) were calculated for the skeletal system and reference regions (liver, spleen, parotid gland, and blood pool).

resultsSignificant differences in SUV uptake were observed, with [

conclusionsWhile radioligands behave similarly in bone regions, there are notable differences in SUV patterns, particularly for PSMA-1007, which showed higher bone uptake. Parotid gland uptake variability suggests a reconsideration of its suitability as a reference region, while the liver, spleen, and blood pool showed more consistent uptake. During comparison, the technetium-labeled SPECT ligand proved as similarly effective as the two PET ligands for diagnostic imaging.
