Concept for a Fan-beam Computed Tomography Image-guided Radiotherapy Device.
Article in Cureus, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Many advancements taking place in the field of radiation therapy come in the form of increasingly powerful devices and specialized treatments that aim to increase precision, visualization, and facility throughput. Although these devices are very effective at their respective roles within radiotherapy, they are expensive and require specialized vaults to shield the public and the radiation worker from the ionizing radiation. A proposed device, known as the Simple XRT, is designed to circumvent the inherent drawbacks of the current devices. The Simple XRT uses a 6 MV linear accelerator that utilizes diagnostic quality computed tomography (CT) image guidance. Simple XRT will serve as a cost-effective device for treating most cancer indications.
