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

introductionLocal recurrence after lung SBRT for early stage NSCLC is rare but its treatment remains a challenge due to limited surgical options. We report a case series of 5 patients treated by stereotactic lung salvage reirradiation for local relapse after a previous lung SBRT. MATERIAL AND

methodsIncluded patients presented an isolated primary lung relapse within at least the 50% isodose of the previous SBRT treatment. Typical reirradiation schedule was 60 Gy in 8 fractions at isodose 80% and was delivered by Cyberknife® using Synchrony® fiducial tracking system. Dose summations were performed to evaluate the safety of the reirradiation.

resultsWe identified 5 patients presenting peripheral lesions. All reirradiated lesions were locally controlled after a median follow-up of 11.1 months (6,7-12,2), while PFS at 6 months was 60% (n = 3). We did not notice any Grade 3 or more acute or late adverse event.

conclusionWe observed encouraging short-term outcome of lung SBRT reirradiation in patients presenting isolated local relapse of an early-stage NSCLC. Further studies are necessary to confirm the safety and efficiency of this salvage treatment approach.
