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

objectiveTo compare radical prostatectomy (RP) versus permanent prostate brachytherapy (PPB) as primary local treatment modalities in delaying disease progression to castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC) among patients with oligometastatic prostate cancer (omPCa) receiving standard androgen deprivation therapy (ADT), and to provide clinical evidence for individualized treatment strategies.

methodsWe performed a retrospective cohort analysis of 88 patients diagnosed with omPCa (defined as ≤5 metastatic lesions) at a single tertiary center between April 2011 and August 2019. All the patients, after receiving either RP (

resultsPrior to PSM, the RP and PPB groups exhibited significant differences in key prognostic factors: the PPB group was older (mean 73.2

conclusionFor patients with omPCa receiving ADT, the choice of local therapeutic intervention significantly impacts the time to CRPC. Radical prostatectomy is associated with a markedly longer delay in disease progression to the castration-resistant state compared with permanent prostate brachytherapy, with the treatment modality itself serving as a strong independent prognostic factor. These findings underscore the importance of considering the type of local therapy in the multimodal management of omPCa and provide a rationale for individualized treatment planning. Prospective, randomized trials are necessary to validate these observations and further define optimal therapeutic paradigms.
