Prostate cancer in men under 50: the impact of race/ethnicity and family history.
Article in Annals of medicine, 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
backgroundProstate cancer remains a significant global public health concern. It is the most common cancer and the second leading cause of cancer death among men in the United States. Current guidelines offer varying recommendations on prostate cancer screening, and most are focused on men aged 50-69. In this study, we examined key risk factors for prostate cancer in men under 50, emphasizing race/ethnicity and family history to better understand the distribution of higher-grade disease in this younger population.
methodsThis retrospective analysis utilized data from our hospital's prostate cancer screening program collected between 2014 and 2024. In our cohort, a total of 312 men under 50 years of age underwent prostate biopsy. We assessed the association of Gleason scores, race/ethnicity, family history, and PSA levels using descriptive statistics analyses.
resultsAmong 312 participants, the largest subgroup was White or Caucasian (
conclusionIn our cohort of men under 50, both race/ethnicity and a positive family history are closely associated with higher-grade prostate cancer. These findings suggest that younger men from high-risk backgrounds may benefit from early detection strategies.
