Prostate specific membrane antigen focal ablation imaging (PSMA-FAB).
Review in Prostate cancer and prostatic diseases, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
The Prostate Imaging after Focal Ablation (PI-FAB) score has been recently proposed for scoring the appearance on multiparametric magnetic resonance imaging (mpMRI) of prostate cancer after focal therapy. The progressive implementation of prostate specific membrane antigen positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PSMA PET/CT) into the management of prostate cancer has revolutionized the diagnostic work-up and inspired our proposal for a dedicated PSMA Focal Ablation Imaging (PSMA-FAB) scoring system. Based on pre- and post-treatment imaging, the classification is categorized into: PSMA-FAB 1 (continue monitoring); PSMA-FAB2 (assess PSA kinetics and MRI, with biopsy to be considered in case of suspicion); and PSMA-FAB 3 (recommend biopsy). Furthermore, a combined Focal-therapy Imaging Response Evaluation Score (FIRE-SCORE) embedding PI-FAB and PSMA-FAB scores is suggested to help patient's management at follow up.
