Integrating Multiparametric MRI and PSMA PET Imaging in Prostate Cancer: Toward a Unified Diagnostic and Risk-Stratification Paradigm.
Review in Medicina (Kaunas, Lithuania), 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Prostate cancer represents a highly prevalent malignancy affecting men globally, necessitating precise staging and risk stratification for effective patient management. Multiparametric magnetic resonance imaging (mpMRI) and prostate-specific membrane antigen positron emission tomography (PSMA PET) have individually revolutionized the diagnosis and management of prostate cancer. Recent developments emphasize the integration of these imaging modalities to improve detection capabilities, inform therapeutic interventions, and facilitate personalized management. This narrative article reviews existing literature on the clinical utilization of mpMRI and PSMA PET in prostate cancer. Key areas encompass initial diagnosis, both local and systemic staging, detection of biochemical recurrence, and their influence in treatment strategies. The integration of mpMRI and PSMA PET offers complementary insights, with mpMRI demonstrating superior capability in local tumor characterization and PSMA PET enhancing the detection of nodal and distant metastases. Quantitative imaging biomarkers, including apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) and standardized uptake values (SUV), have the potential to improve risk stratification and inform personalized treatment strategies. Hybrid imaging techniques may improve diagnostic accuracy and guide decisions regarding surgery, radiotherapy, and systemic treatment. The integration of mpMRI and PSMA PET allows a potentially transformative advancement in the realm of precision imaging for prostate cancer. This integrated approach can improve diagnostic accuracy, better define disease extent, and support personalized management strategies.
