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

aimThe purpose of this study was to determine the optimal mean liver biologically effective dose (BED) to prevent radiation-induced liver disease (RILD) in stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT).

backgroundThe actual mean doses appropriate for liver irradiation in modern radiotherapy techniques have not been adequately investigated, although SBRT is sometimes alternatively performed using fractionated regimens. MATERIALS AND

methodsSBRT treatment plans for liver tumors in 50 patients were analyzed. All distributions of the physical doses were transformed to BED

resultsA significantly positive correlation was observed between the mean physical dose for the background liver and the mean BED

conclusionA mean BED
