Enhanced precision in prostate surgery: determining key factors for rectal positive surgical margins through integrated imaging and clinical data analysis.
Article in Frontiers in surgery, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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.
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: This study investigates the risk factors associated with rectal positive surgical margins (RPSM) following radical prostatectomy and aims to develop a predictive model. Methods: Clinical data from 198 patients undergoing radical prostatectomy at the Department of Urology, Kunshan Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine from June 2022 to June 2024 were analyzed. Patients were categorized into groups with and without RPSM. Univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses identified independent predictors of RPSM. Utilizing R software, we generated a column chart illustrating prostate cancer's RPSM incidence and constructed ROC curves with the area under the curve (AUC) to assess the discriminative performance and calibration of our model. Results: Multivariate logistic regression identified clinical stage, PSA level, Gleason score, bilateral prostate infiltration, and PI-RADS as significant predictors of RPSM (all Conclusion: The predictive model effectively forecasts the likelihood of RPSM following radical prostatectomy, offering valuable insights for personalized patient management.
