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

Purpose: As local recurrence remains a challenge and the advantages of the simultaneous integrated boost (SIB) technique have been validated in photon radiotherapy, we applied the SIB technique to CIRT. The aim was to investigate the metabolomic changes of the CIRT with concurrent androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) in localized prostate cancer (PCa) and the unique metabolic effect of the SIB technique. Material and Methods: This study enrolled 24 pathologically confirmed PCa patients. All patients went through CIRT with concurrent ADT. The gross target volume (GTV) boost was defined as positive lesions on both Results: The metabolite profiles were significantly altered after CIRT. The most significantly altered metabolic pathway is PSMA participated alanine, aspartate and glutamate metabolism. Metabolites in this pathway showed a trend to be better suppressed in the SIB group. A total of 11 identified metabolites were significantly discriminative between two groups and all of them were better down-regulated in the SIB group. Meanwhile, among these metabolites, three metabolites in DNA damage and repair related purine metabolism were down-regulated to a greater extent in the SIB group. Conclusion: Metabolic dysfunction was one of the typical characteristics of PCa. CIRT with ADT showed a powerful inhibition of PCa metabolism, especially in PSMA participated metabolic pathway. The SIB CIRT showed even better performance on down-regulation of most metabolism than uniform-dose-distribution CIRT. Meanwhile, the SIB CIRT also showed its unique superiority to inhibit purine metabolism. PSMA PET/CT guided SIB CIRT showed its potentials to further benefit PCa patients.
