NCTN clinical trial standardization for radiotherapy through IROC and CIRO.
Article in Medical physics, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Evidence-based practice is the cornerstone of modern medicine. Randomized clinical trials across multiple institutions are the gold standard for modern evidence collection. National Cancer Trials Network (NCTN) instruments the clinical trials through the new infrastructure for improvements in cancer treatment. Radiation therapy is an integral component of cancer treatment and is involved in many of the NCTN clinical trials. Radiotherapy is experiencing exciting developments in new treatment modalities and multi-modality image guidance. One of NCTN network groups NRG Oncology brings together the research areas of the National Surgical Adjuvant Breast and Bowel Project (NSABP), the Radiation Therapy Oncology Group (RTOG), and the Gynecologic Oncology Group (GOG). The Imaging and Radiation Oncology Core (IROC) and Center for Innovation in Radiation Oncology(CIRO) of NRG Oncology complement each other's functions in development and implementation of the new radiotherapy and imaging technologies in clinical trials with standardization and other strategies for quality. The standardization process is the essential step to make the data collected for clinical trials of high quality, interoperable, and reusable.
