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

purposeTo evaluate safety, feasibility, and efficacy of template-assisted MATERIAL AND

methodsPatients with pathologically confirmed operable peripheral NSCLC, who underwent template-assisted SABT (30 Gy delivered in one fraction) and were scheduled for tumor resection 4-6 weeks after SABT were included in this study. The perioperative adverse reactions of SABT were recorded to evaluate safety and feasibility of SABT for neoadjuvant therapy. Dosimetric data from both simulated and actual plans were collected and compared. Imaging with

resultsPatients did not experience any serious adverse events. None of the patients had a delay in receiving surgery. After 4-6 weeks, the indicators for the efficacy of neoadjuvant therapy significantly decreased in all patients: gross tumor volume (

conclusionsThe efficacy of template-assisted SABT for neoadjuvant therapy was significant in operable peripheral NSCLC. Moreover, no serious adverse reactions were observed; when the coplanar template guidance technique was applied, dosimetric parameters were in good agreement between the actual SABT plan and the preoperative simulated plan.
