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

The demand for personalized medicine in radiotherapy has been met by a surge of mechanistic models offering predictions of the biological effect of ionizing radiation under consideration of a growing number of parameters. We present an extension of our existing model of cell survival after photon irradiation to explicitly differentiate between the damage inflicted by the direct and indirect (radicals-mediated) action of ionizing radiation. Within our approach, we assume that the oxygenation status affects the indirect action. The effect of different concentrations of dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO), an effective radical scavenger, has been simulated at different dose levels in normoxic and hypoxic conditions for various cell lines. Our model is found to accurately predict experimental data available in literature, validating the assumptions made in our approach. The presented extension adds further flexibility to our model and could act as basis for further developments of our model.
