Intensity-modulated radiotherapy for synchronous cancer of the anal canal and cervix.
Article in Oncology letters, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Due to recent advancements in diagnostic techniques, the incidence of multiple primary cancer has increased; however, synchronous cancer of the anal canal and cervix (SCACC) is rare, and no previous studies have investigated the treatment of this disease. The present study reports a case in which intensity-modulated radiotherapy (IMRT) was used to treat a 64-year-old female with SCACC, inguinal lymphadenopathy and anal pain. The patient was diagnosed with cT3N3M0 stage IIIb anal canal squamous cell carcinoma and cT1b1N0M0 stage Ib1 cervical squamous cell carcinoma, based on biopsy and imaging study data. According to the definitive treatment for advanced-stage anal canal cancer, outpatient treatment with chemoradiotherapy (CRT) using S-1 for SCACC was recommended, as the patient did not want to undergo resection of the anus. Considering the lymph node regions involved in SCACC and the necessary doses, the treatment plan was as follows: Whole pelvis and inguinal lymph node region radiation (36 Gy/20 fractions); a first booster radiation dose (9 Gy/5 fractions) for the whole pelvis; and a second booster radiation dose (14.4 Gy/8 fractions) for the primary lesions. The patient was prescribed S-1 at a dose of 60 mg/m
