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.

Abstract

Multiparametric magnetic resonance imaging (mpMRI) is strongly recommended by current clinical guidelines for improved detection of clinically significant prostate cancer (csPCa). However, the major limitations are the need for intravenous (IV) contrast and dependence on reader expertise. Efforts to address these issues include use of biparametric magnetic resonance imaging (bpMRI) and advanced, quantitative magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) techniques. One such advanced technique is the Restriction Spectrum Imaging restriction score (RSIrs), an imaging biomarker that has been shown to improve quantitative accuracy of patient-level csPCa detection. Advanced Restriction imaging and reconstruction Technology for Prostate MRI (ART-Pro) is a multisite, multinational trial that aims to evaluate whether IV contrast can be avoided in the setting of standardized, state-of-the-art image acquisition, with or without addition of RSIrs. Additionally, RSIrs will be evaluated as a stand-alone, quantitative, objective biomarker. ART-Pro will be conducted in two stages and will include a total of 500 patients referred for multiparametric prostate MRI with a clinical suspicion of prostate cancer at the participating sites. ART-Pro-1 will evaluate bpMRI, mpMRI, and RSIrs on the accuracy of expert radiologists' detection of csPCa and will evaluate RSIrs as a stand-alone, quantitative, objective biomarker. ART-Pro-2 will evaluate the same MRI techniques on the accuracy of nonexpert radiologists' detection of csPCa, and findings will be evaluated against the expertly created dataset from ART-Pro-1. The primary endpoint is to evaluate whether bpMRI is noninferior to mpMRI among expert (ART-Pro-1) and nonexpert (ART-Pro-2) radiologists for the detection of grade group ≥2 csPCa. This trial is registered in the US National Library of Medicine Trial Registry (NCT number: NCT06579417) at ClinicalTrials.gov. Patient accrual at the first site (UC San Diego) began in December 2023. Initial results are anticipated by the end of 2026.
