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.

Abstract

purposeTo perform a prospective trial examining positron emission tomography (PET)-based, dose-painted intensity modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) in the setting of locally advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). METHODS AND MATERIALS: Patients with stage IIB-III NSCLC were treated with 25 fractions of dose-painted IMRT. Tumors or lymph nodes with metabolic tumor volume exceeding 25 cm

resultsThirty-five subjects with 116 hypermetabolic lesions were eligible for analysis. The primary endpoint was met for 24 of 30 patients (80%) who underwent posttreatment PET, satisfying our efficacy objective. With a median follow-up duration of 23.8 months for living patients, progression in a lesion targeted with radiation therapy has been observed in 5 patients (14%). Treating progression in other sites and death without progression as competing risks, 2-year cumulative incidence rates of local disease progression in high-risk lesions (n=24) and low-risk lesions (n=92) are 9% and 3%, respectively. The actuarial rate of overall survival at 2 years is 52%.

conclusionsDose-painted IMRT based on pretreatment PET metrics with concurrent chemotherapy yields high rates of metabolic response and local disease control for locally advanced NSCLC. Future trials should test this approach to maximize the therapeutic ratio of thoracic radiation therapy.
