Dosimetric comparison between three- and four-dimensional computerised tomography radiotherapy for breast cancer.
Article in Oncology letters, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
At present, methods of radiotherapy simulation for breast cancer based on four-dimensional computerised tomography (4D-CT) or three-dimensional CT (3D-CT) simulation remain controversial. In the present study, 7 patients with residual breast tissue received whole breast radiotherapy based on 3D-CT and 4D-CT simulation. For the 4D-CT plan, four types of CT images were produced, including images of the end of inspiration and the end of expiration, and images acquired by the maximal intensity projection (MIP) and average intensity projection (AIP). In the 3D-CT plan, the clinical target volume (CTV) and plan target volume (PTV) were marginally higher compared with the 4D-CT plan. In addition, the minimum point dose of the target volume (
