Preoperative and postoperative radiotherapy (RT) for non-small cell lung cancer: still an open question.
Review in Translational lung cancer research, 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
Preoperative and postoperative radiotherapy (PORT) with or without chemotherapy has been used in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) for decades. Numerous trials have investigated the potential survival benefit of this strategy, but despite greater knowledge of the disease, considerable technological developments in imaging and radiotherapy, and significant progress in surgery, many questions remain unsolved. In this review, we summarize the current knowledge on this problem and discuss issues which still require elucidation.
