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

Prostatic acinar adenocarcinomas (PAA) are frequently diagnosed by biopsy, but sometimes they can be identified incidentally on transurethral resection (TURP) tumor fragments. The classical histological information provided by resection and prostate biopsy specimens is the basis for the therapeutic approach and the establishment of the prognosis of the tumors. In this study, we analyzed 135 PAA that were diagnosed incidentally or for which curative therapy was practiced, for which we established the diagnostic differences for tumor type, tumor grade, presence of perineural (IPN) and lymphovascular invasion (LVI) on radical prostatectomy (RP) and TURP specimens. The tumor type, especially foamy PAA (FPAA) and colloid PAA (CoPAA) were identified mainly on PR, while atrophic PAA (APAA), and pseudohyperplastic PAA (PPAA) mainly on TURP. High ISUP 3-5 grading groups were associated mainly with RP, while ISUP 1-2 were more frequently present on TURP. IPN was present in both types of specimens, while the presence of LVI was more frequent on RP. For the most accurate evaluation of the histological parameters associated with PAA, the information provided by TURP seems insufficient and can be complemented by targeted biopsies for the accuracy of the therapeutic decision and prognosis.
