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

Objective: The aim of our study was to assess the impact of the combination of HALP score with TTCR score on OS and PFS in PC patients who developed castration resistance. Patients and methods: The study enrolled 152 patients with metastatic disease who had received either ARTAs or docetaxel as first-line treatment. The median cut-off was 30.83 months for the HALP score and 16.1 months for TTCR determined by ROC analysis. Based on these cut-off values, patients were categorized into low-high HALP score and TTCR <16.1 months-TTCR ≥16.1 months groups. The combination of HALP score and TTCR was then stratified by risk into three new groups: Factor 0, Factor 1, and Factor 2. Results: PFS was significantly shorter in the TTCR <16.1 months group compared to the TTCR ≥16.1 months group, as well as in the low-HALP score group compared to the high-HALP score group. Furthermore, as the number of factors increased, a significant increase in OS and PFS was observed in the groups formed by the combination of HALP score and TTCR. Conclusion: We have validated the predictive capability of combining low HALP score (<30.38) and short TTCR (<16.1 months) parameters in estimating the OS and PFS durations of mCRPC patients, both recognized as unfavorable prognostic indicators.
