Image guidance in proton therapy for lung cancer.
Review in Translational lung cancer research, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
Proton therapy is a promising but challenging treatment modality for the management of lung cancer. The technical challenges are due to respiratory motion, low dose tolerance of adjacent normal tissue and tissue density heterogeneity. Different imaging modalities are applied at various steps of lung proton therapy to provide information on target definition, target motion, proton range, patient setup and treatment outcome assessment. Imaging data is used to guide treatment design, treatment delivery, and treatment adaptation to ensure the treatment goal is achieved. This review article will summarize and compare various imaging techniques that can be used in every step of lung proton therapy to address these challenges.
