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

Adenocarcinoma is the predominant malignant tumor of the prostate, while primary prostatic leiomyosarcoma is an exceptionally rare and highly aggressive mesenchymal neoplasm. The synchronous presence of both entities is extremely uncommon and has been, to our knowledge, described in only a few cases. We describe a 50-year-old man with persistent lower urinary tract symptoms and mildly elevated prostate-specific antigen. Imaging demonstrated two distinct intraglandular lesions. Histopathology and immunohistochemistry confirmed acinar adenocarcinoma and leiomyosarcoma in separate foci. Laparoscopic radical prostatectomy was performed; positive sarcomatous margins prompted adjuvant radiotherapy. Integrated clinical, radiologic, and pathologic assessment is essential for accurate diagnosis and management.
