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

Purpose: This altmetric analysis aimed to identify and describe the top 100 papers on prostate cancer-associated exosomes in the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region cited on social media. Design/methodology/approach: As an applied study with an altmetric approach, this research included all Science Citation Index (SCI) Expanded indexed papers on prostate cancer-associated exosomes in the MENA region during 1970-2023. Altmetric Attention Scores (AASs) were extracted from the Altmetric Explorer, and Excel and SPSS were used for data analysis. Finding: Twitter ranked first in mentioning 73.55 of the top 100 studied papers. The highest score of mentions on Twitter equaled 187, and that of AAS was 516, which belonged to an original research article. However, the top paper in citation counts was a guideline (AAS = 116; citation count = 5,664 =). The Practical implications: Showing a broad perspective on the research priorities and new directions in prostate cancer-associated exosomes, this study can be a guideline for finding main papers on diagnosing, treating, and preventing prostate cancer. It helps researchers, professionals, and policymakers in developing the use of social media in disseminating related information. Originality: By providing helpful information on prostate cancer-associated exosomes, this study can inform researchers and administrators of the state of research on the topic and consequent health promotion among the public.
