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

Repopulation of tumor cells during radiotherapy is believed to be a significant cause for treatment failure. The phenomenon of tumor repopulation during fractionated radiotherapy was found from clinical observations that identified that the local control rate decreased with a prolonged treatment time. A series of animal experiments with varied overall treatment time and fractionated doses were performed to demonstrate tumor cell repopulation during radiotherapy in various mouse xenograft models. However, conventional detection methods are challenging, as it is difficult to separate viable cells from those destined for apoptosis during fractionated radiotherapy. In essence, the mechanism of tumor repopulation involves the continuing proliferation of clonogenic tumor cells.
