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
Background: Accurate risk stratification of prostate cancer (PCa) is crucial for clinical management. Although diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) is widely used in PCa evaluation, the value of high and ultrahigh b-values remains under investigation. This study aimed to explore the predictive value of ultrahigh b-value DWI for the Gleason score of PCa patients. Methods: This study gathered a total of 78 patients and acquired T2-weighted imaging (T2WI), conventional DWI (0, 1,000 s/mm Results: A total of 154 biopsy-confirmed lesions (102 cancerous lesions and 52 noncancer lesions) were analyzed. Ultrahigh b-value DWI (b=2,000 and 3,000 s/mm Conclusions: Ultrahigh b-value DWI with quantitative ADC measurements can be an effective indicator for evaluating the differentiation of PCa. It has important value for the clinical prediction of Gleason scores and prognosis assessment.
