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

Metastatic liver tumors (MLTs) from colorectal cancer (CRC) are often treated with stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT). The present study aimed to examine the predictive factors for response of MLTs to SBRT. A total of 39 MLTs from 24 patients with CRC were retrospectively analyzed. Radiotherapy for MLT was typically performed with a prescribed dose equivalent to a biologically effective dose (BED)
