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

purposeThe objective of this study is to estimate radiotherapy (RT) modalities for patients with stage I-II nasal natural killer T-Cell lymphoma (NNKTCL), including plan quality, radiation delivery efficiency, cost of RT and excess absolute risk (EAR). MATERIALS AND

methodsTwenty-four representative patients with stage I-II NNKTCL treated with fix-field intensity-modulated radiotherapy (FF-IMRT) were re-planned for volumetric modulated arc therapy (VMAT), TomoDirect (TD) and TomoHelical (TH) on the TomoHDA system, respectively. Plan characteristics, cost of RT and EAR were compared.

resultsCompared with IMRT, TD and TH showed significant improvement in terms of D

conclusionThe results show that both TD and TH can achieve higher conformal target quality while getting worse organs at risk (OARs) sparing and EAR to some organs than IMRT for patients with stage I-II NNKTCL. IMRT delivers the lowest dose to most OARs, VMAT requires the lower cost of RT and shortest delivery time, and TH obtained the optimal target coverage. The results could provide direction for selecting proper RT modalities for different cases.
