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

Introduction: Primary squamous cell carcinoma of the prostate is rare, and genetic profiling of this disease has not been established yet. Case presentation: We present a case of primary squamous cell carcinoma in a patient with testicular dysgenesis syndrome. The patient was diagnosed with prostate squamous cell carcinoma following intractable dysuria, and his serum prostate-specific antigen level was low. The patient had multiple lymph node and lung metastases, which led to administration of platinum-based chemotherapy. Additionally, targeted next-generation genome sequencing was performed to detect CDK12 mutations. Conclusion: Early imaging studies should be considered, even if the patient's prostate-specific antigen level is low when dysuria persists despite medical treatment. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first reported case of primary squamous cell carcinoma with a CDK12 mutation in a patient with TDS.
