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

Primary squamous cell carcinoma (PSCC) of the prostate is a rare, aggressive malignancy that presents diagnostic and therapeutic challenges. We present a unique case of PSCC arising from squamous metaplasia coexisting with a separate adenocarcinoma, forming a collision tumor. Dual-tracer imaging demonstrated distinct FDG and PSMA-avid metastases, reflecting independent biology. This case represents, to our knowledge, the first report of a true prostatic collision tumor with independent PSCC and adenocarcinoma, expanding the spectrum of prostate cancer variants.
