Review in Clinical & translational oncology : official publication of the Federation of Spanish Oncology Societies and of the National Cancer Institute of Mexico, 2012. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 12 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.

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

Radiotherapy (RT) is commonly used as adjuvant treatment following hysterectomy and double oophorectomy in endometrial carcinoma. Prophylactic vaginal brachytherapy (BT) is the most common treatment in BT units. The PORTEC and GOG 99 studies have attempted to clarify the indications of BT and postoperative external RT, changing treatment standards. However, prophylactic BT regimens are very varied and there is currently no consensus on how to treat patients in terms of dose per fraction and number of fractions. Moreover, unoperated cases of endometrium are uncommon and there is limited experience in their treatment with BT. The 9th Consensus Meeting of the SEOR and SEFM Brachytherapy Group, held in Malaga on 11 March 2011, was therefore dedicated to "Brachytherapy in Endometrial Carcinoma". This article presents the consensus on treatment of endometrial carcinoma in operated (prophylactic vaginal BT) and unoperated (endouterine BT) patients.
