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

purposeWhile prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA) positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT) is a highly sensitive modality for staging prostate cancer, a notable subset of patients presents with negative findings, leading to potential under-diagnosis. The incremental diagnostic value of multiparametric magnetic resonance imaging (mpMRI) in this specific cohort remains poorly defined. This study aimed to evaluate the added value of mpMRI in newly diagnosed prostate cancer patients with negative PSMA PET/CT results and to identify patient characteristics that predict this benefit.
