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

background and purposeHigh-dose irradiation to the pulmonary hilar region is generally considered to be of high risk in causing bronchial injury. The aim of this retrospective study is to investigate the safety and efficacy of stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) for patients with lung tumors in the pulmonary hilum. PATIENTS AND

methods21 patients who underwent SBRT for lung tumors within 2 cm from a major bronchus were retrospectively analyzed. The total biologically effective doses ranging from 50.7 to 157.5 Gy (median, 100 Gy) were given to the tumors by SBRT.

resultsThe overall survival rates at 1 and 2 years after SBRT were 90.0% and 62.2%, respectively. Nine patients were alive and 15 irradiated tumors were controlled during the follow-up period of 10-54 months (median, 20 months). Nine patients died of tumor progression and one patient each died of hemoptysis, infectious pneumonia, and epidural hemorrhage. Severe late toxicity (>or= grade 3) was seen in three patients of whom two had previously received repeated radiotherapy.

conclusionSBRT for lung tumors located in the pulmonary hilar region may be tolerable and acceptable, if multiple treatments to the same major bronchus are avoided, and irradiated volumes are carefully taken into consideration.
