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

Background: Although extensive research highlights the detrimental effect of cribriform pattern 4 (CP4) on survival in non-high-risk prostate cancer (PC), its prognostic significance in high-risk PC is not well understood. Methods: The individual patient data from the The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) database following radical prostatectomy was retrospectively examined. A predefined statistical analysis was conducted to evaluate the potential association between CP4 and progression-free survival (PFS). Results: Of the 135 patients examined, CP4 was present in 66 (48.9%). Median follow-up was 45.93 months (interquartile range: 22.87, 80.10). Cribriform pattern 4 was associated with a significantly reduced PFS (subdistribution hazard ratio, 1.99; 95% CI, 1.01-3.92; P=.045) following adjustment for covariates. Conclusions: The presence of CP4 in high-risk Gleason 8-10 PC portends worse PFS. Further studies are warranted to fully understand its implications in risk stratification and post-operative management of PC.
