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

Over 1 million cases of prostate cancer are reported every year, and it is the second most common cancer in men. Androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) is a hallmark treatment for prostate cancer but is associated with the development or exacerbation of cardiovascular disease. The most common cause of non-cancer death in patients with prostate cancer is cardiovascular disease. Thus, a better understanding of the prevalence of cardiovascular toxicity across all therapies, management of potential cardiovascular complications, and prevention of cardiovascular events is essential as treatments continue to evolve. In this article, the first in a 2-part series, we provide a review of the current landscape of ADT therapy and its association with cardiovascular disease, summarize recent clinical trial data evaluating cardiovascular outcomes, and provide insights on the management of cardiovascular risk factors and adverse events for clinicians managing this high-risk population of men undergoing potentially cardiotoxic treatment for prostate cancer.
