Hypofractionated Radiotherapy for Anaplastic Thyroid Cancer: Systematic Review and Pooled Analysis.
Article in Cancers, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 13 papers, 2 of them syntheses 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.

Abstract
Anaplastic thyroid carcinoma (ATC) is associated with a poor prognosis due to aggressive tumor growth and high treatment resistance. Hypofractionated treatment concepts may be more effective and less time consuming compared to normofractionated radiotherapy (RT). In this retrospective study, we aim to evaluate the outcome of hypofractionated regimens and perform a systematic review concerning hypofractionated RT and pooled analysis of this treatment modality. A systematic review using the MEDLINE/Pubmed and Cochrane databases was performed. Data from all eligible studies were extracted, and a pooled analysis of literature and our cohort (
