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

purposeTo study normal lung tissue (NLT) complications in magnetic resonance (MR) image based linac and conventional radiotherapy (RT) techniques. MATERIALS AND

methodsThe Geant4 toolkit was used to simulate a 6 MV photon beam. A homogenous magnetic field of 1.5 Tesla (T) was applied in both perpendicular and parallel directions relative to the radiation beam.Analysis of the NLT complications was assessed according to the normal lung tissue complication probability (NTCP), the mean lung dose (MLD), and percentage of the lung volume receiving doses greater than 20 Gy (V

resultsThe results show that the MLD and V

conclusionMR-linac RT may result in lower NLT complications when compared to conventional RT.
