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

Telemedicine is considered to be an important approach for medical education in rural areas. Due to a significant shortage of radiation oncologists in rural areas of Sichuan Province in China, a tele-radiotherapy system has been designed and developed for training radiation oncologists in the Sichuan Cancer Hospital and Research Institute. The whole process of the radiotherapy teaching platform was designed and established in the tele-radiotherapy system. A detailed radiation therapy process could be obtained in rural areas through the tele-radiotherapy system. Through the tele-radiotherapy system, oncologists in rural hospitals are trained at any time and anywhere. And the experience of experts in the Sichuan Cancer Hospital and Research Institute is effectively and quickly conveyed to rural areas. A tele-radiotherapy system is considered to be an important means to promote the level of radiotherapy and to solve the shortage of radiation oncologists in rural areas.
