Dosimetric assessment of the exposure of radiotherapy patients due to cone-beam CT procedures.
Article in Radiation and environmental biophysics, 2019. 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
Cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) is widely used for pre-treatment verification and patient setup in image-guided radiation therapy (IGRT). CBCT imaging is employed daily and several times per patient, resulting in potentially high cumulative imaging doses to healthy tissues that surround exposed target organs. Computed tomography dose index (CTDI) is the parameter used by CBCT equipment as indication of the radiation output to patients. This study aimed to increase the knowledge on the relation between CBCT organ doses and weighted CTDI (CTDI
