The Spontaneous Remission of Recurrent Lymph Node Metastatic Prostate Cancer With Lowering Serum Prostate-Specific Antigen Level.
Article in Cureus, 2022. 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
The incidence rate of spontaneous remission of malignant cancer is very low. Reports on spontaneous remission in advanced prostate cancer are extremely limited. Our patient was treated with androgen deprivation therapy, local radiotherapy, and surgical castration at the initial diagnosis. Approximately nine years after treatment, he experienced a rise in serum prostate-specific antigen level and relapse of obturator lymph node adenopathy. Initially, androgen deprivation therapy was reinitiated, which resulted in castration-resistant prostate cancer. Although androgen deprivation therapy was discontinued, spontaneous remission of recurrent lymph node and spontaneous reduction in serum prostate-specific antigen level was seen. There was no sign of radiological recurrence for over eight years without prostate cancer treatment.
