Dosimetric impact from cardiac motion to heart substructures in thoracic cancer patients treated with a magnetic resonance guided radiotherapy system.
Article in Physics and imaging in radiation oncology, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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
Few studies have examined the cardiac volume and radiation dose differences among cardiac phases during radiation therapy (RT). Such information is crucial to dose reconstruction and understanding of RT related cardiac toxicity. In a cohort of nine patients, we studied the changes in the volume and doses of several cardiac substructures between the end-diastolic and end-systolic phases based on the clinical magnetic resonance-guided RT (MRgRT) treatment plans. Significant differences in the volume and dose between the two phases were observed. Onboard cardiac cine MRI holds promise for patient-specific cardiac sparing treatment designs.
