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
introductionResearch results suggest that high-resolution ultrasonography (microUS) can be used to estimate the risk of prostate cancer (PCa) and identify suspicious areas, enabling precise biopsy during examination.
aimThe aim of the study was to assess the usefulness of microUS in a population of patients with suspected PCa. MATERIALS AND
methodsAn observational single-center study on the application of microUS was conducted in a group of 439 patients. All examinations were performed using the ExactVu microUS system.
resultA total of 439 patients with suspected PCa underwent microUS examination. Following the examination, suspicious lesions (positive result) were identified in 196 patients (44.6%). Among them, 86 (43.8%) underwent multiparametric magnetic resonance imaging (mpMRI), and suspicious lesions were found in 36% of the cases. There was no major difference in the frequency of positive results on microUS and mpMRI (
conclusionA positive result from microUS, even when MRI is negative, may indicate a need for prostate biopsy. On the other hand, a negative result from microUS suggests a low likelihood of clinically significant PCa and thus a need for biopsy.
