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

purposeThe objective of this study was to compare and assess the accuracy of computed tomography (CT)-based target delineation with that of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)-based on high-dose-rate brachytherapy (HDR-BT) for patients with cervical cancer. MATERIAL AND

methodsData of 20 patients with locally advanced cervical cancer were collected and evaluated. Dimensions, conformity, and dose parameters of high-risk clinical target volume (CTV

resultsAverage age of 20 patients included was 57.8 years. Width, thickness, and volumes of CT-based CTV
