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

purposeMagnetic resonance-guided stereotactic body radiotherapy (MRgSBRT) combines high-precision SBRT with superior soft tissue visualization and daily adaptive planning. While prospective studies suggest reduced toxicity compared to CT-based SBRT, data on oncologic outcomes and PSA kinetics in the MR-guided setting remain limited.

methodsWe retrospectively reviewed 150 prostate cancer patients treated with MRgSBRT (ViewRay MRIdian) between September 2018 and April 2024. Patients received 36.25 Gy radiotherapy in 5 fractions with or without androgen deprivation therapy (ADT). Outcomes included biochemical recurrence free survival (bRFS), local progression free survival (LPFS), regional recurrence free survival (RRFS), distant metastases free survival (DMFS), event-free survival (EFS), PSA kinetics, and toxicity (CTCAE v5.0).

resultsThe median follow-up was 27.2 months (range: 4-73 months). The estimated 5‑year bRFS, LPFS, RRFS, DMFS and EFS rates were 81.8%, 91.4%, 99.2%, 98.3% and 77.3% respectively. All patients were alive at the time of analysis. The estimated EFS was lowest for the very high-risk group (2-year EFS: 55.6%). The median time to nadir PSA (nPSA) was 12 months (range: 3-54 months), with a median value of 0.46 ng/mL, for all cohort. PSA bounce occurred in 15.3% of patients and was associated with numerically higher 5‑year EFS (95% vs. 73.8%). No acute or late grade ≥ 3 GU or GI toxicities were observed.

conclusionMRgSBRT for localized prostate cancer provides favorable tumor control with minimal toxicity. Although not statistically significant, PSA bounce was associated with improved outcomes, warranting further investigation as a potential prognostic marker.
