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

introductionThe goals of treatment for metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer are disease management, improving quality of life, and prolonging life. Although androgen-receptor blockade and chemotherapy can control the disease for several years in most patients, resistance to treatment and continued disease progression are inevitable. Radionuclides have emerged as important tools in the therapeutic arsenal against prostate cancer. Appropriate sequencing with existing standards of care is paramount to ensure that patients get the maximum clinical benefit from as many life-prolonging therapies as possible during the treatment journey.

methodsWe review radionuclide therapy for men with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer and present a treatment algorithm used in our specialist center to provide optimal care.

resultsThe goal of the treatment algorithm employed in our specialist center is to provide optimal patient care by using and sequencing appropriate systemic radionuclide therapy. The first step is to determine the extent of disease and metastases to offer personalized treatment to extend survival. Appropriate treatment sequencing can allow men to receive the life-prolonging benefits of radium-223 immediately upon bone-only progression, while remaining eligible to benefit from chemotherapy and/or lutetium-177 vipivotide tetraxetan (

conclusionsAs the majority of men with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer first present with bone-only metastases, they may be treated initially with radium-223, while still remaining eligible to benefit from chemotherapy and
