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

Re-irradiation is frequently performed in radiotherapy (RT) departments. We present an optimization methodology that takes the previous irradiation into account. A 68-year-old female patient suffering from rectal adenocarcinoma, who had previously undergone RT for metastases to the right iliac bone, presented with a recurrence of metastasis to the L5 and the left sacroiliac joint. Re-irradiation was performed using volumetric modulated arc therapy (VMAT). We proceeded to a registration of the previous RT planning CT and RT doses to the new planning CT. Virtual volumes corresponding to the intersection of the small bowel (SB) and each isodose structure were created. We calculated the maximal dose (D
