Strategies to optimize radiotherapy based on biological responses of tumor and normal tissue.
Article in Experimental and therapeutic medicine, 2012. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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
Rapid developments in radiation oncology are currently taking place. Radiation-induced responses are being increasingly used for radiotherapy modification based on advancements in radiobiology. In the process of radiation treatment, radiobiological responses of tumor and normal tissue in patients are monitored non-invasively by a variety of techniques including imaging, biological methods and biochemical assays. Information collected using these methods and data on responses are further incorporated into radiotherapy optimization approaches, which not only include the optimization of radiation treatment planning, such as dose distributions in targets and treatment delivery, but also include radiation sensitivity modification and gene radiotherapy of the tumor and normal tissue. Hence, the highest tumor control rate is obtained with the utmost protection being afforded to normal tissue under this treatment modality.
