Locally advanced pancreatic cancer successfully treated with high-dose helical tomotherapy.
Article in International cancer conference journal, 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
Complete surgical resection is the potentially curative treatment for pancreatic cancer, but only fewer than 20% of those individuals will be found to be eligible for surgery. Here we report a 49-year-old man with locally advanced pancreatic cancer successfully treated with high-dose radiotherapy using helical tomotherapy (66 Gy/33 fractions, 2 Gy per day over 6.5 weeks). To our knowledge, this is the first reported case of locally advanced pancreatic cancer curatively treated with helical tomotherapy alone.
