Cardiotoxicity of mediastinal radiotherapy.
Review in Reports of practical oncology and radiotherapy : journal of Greatpoland Cancer Center in Poznan and Polish Society of Radiation Oncology. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 24 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
aimTo explore available recent literature related to cardiotoxicity following mediastinal radiation.
backgroundRadiotherapy-related heart injury is well documented, with no apparent safety threshold dose. The number of long-term cancer survivors exposed to mediastinal radiotherapy at some point of their treatment is increasing. Heart dosimetric parameters are of great importance in developing a treatment plan, but few data are available regarding radiosensitivity and dose-volume constraints for specific heart structures. MATERIALS AND
methodsIn October 2018, we identified articles published after 1990 through a PubMed/MEDLINE database search. The authors examined rough search results and manuscripts not relevant for the topic were excluded. We extracted clinical outcomes following mediastinal radiotherapy of childhood cancers, lymphoma, medulloblastoma, thymic cancers and hematopoietic cell transplantation survivors and evaluated treatment planning data, whenever available.
resultsA total of 1311 manuscripts were identified in our first-round search. Of these manuscripts, only 115 articles, matching our selection criteria, were included.
conclusionsStudies uniformly show a linear radiation dose-response relationship between mean absorbed dose to the heart (heart-D
