Genetic ancestry concordant RNA splicing in prostate cancer involves oncogenic genes and associates with recurrence.
Article in NPJ precision oncology, 2025. 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
Black men suffer disproportionately from prostate cancer (PCa) compared to men of other races and ethnicities. Comparing the molecular landscape of PCa among Black and White patients has the potential to identify targets for development of new precision medicine interventions. Herein, we conducted transcriptomic analysis of prostate tumors and paired tumor-adjacent normals from self-reported Black and White PCa patients and estimated patient genetic ancestry. Clinical follow-up revealed increased biochemical recurrence (BCR) among Black patients compared to White patients with high-grade PCa. Transcriptomic analysis identified differential alternative RNA splicing events (ARSs) between Black and White PCa patients. Genes undergoing genetic ancestry-concordant ARSs in high-grade or low-grade tumors involved cancer promoting genes. Most genes undergoing genetic ancestry-concordant ARSs did not exhibit differential aggregate gene expression or alternative polyadenylation. A number of the genetic ancestry-concordant ARSs associated with BCR; thus, genetic ancestry-concordant RNA splice variants may represent unique targets for PCa precision oncology.
