ESTRO/ACROP IORT recommendations for intraoperative radiation therapy in locally recurrent rectal cancer.
Review in Clinical and translational radiation oncology, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. An erratum has been issued. Cited by 21 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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.
Who cites it
21 citing papers in PubMed, 1 synthesis or guideline pooled it, 38 citations in OpenAlex.

Abstract
Multimodal strategies have been implemented for locally recurrent rectal cancer scheduled for complete surgical resection. Irradiation and systemic therapy have been added to improve the oncological outcome, as surgery alone was associated with a poor prognosis. Intraoperative irradiation (IORT) is a component of irradiation intensification. Long-term cancer control and a higher survival rate were consistently reported in patients who had IORT as a component of their multidisciplinary treatment. The experience reported by expert IORT groups is reviewed and recommendations to guide clinical practice are explained in detail.
