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 purpose of this planning study was to develop an acceptable technique for highly hypofractionated intensity-modulated radiation therapy using simultaneous integrated boost technique (SIB-hHF-RT) for nonmetastatic National Comprehensive Cancer Network high-risk prostate cancer. MATERIALS AND

methodsWe created SIB-hHF-RT plans for 14 nonmetastatic prostate cancer patients with MRI-detectable intraprostatic lesions (IPLs) and without intestines locating close to the seminal vesicle and prostate. We prescribed 57 Gy for IPLs and 54 Gy for the remainder of planning target volume (PTV) in 15 fractions. The IPLs were contoured based on magnetic resonance imaging, and PTV was generated by adding 6-8-mm margins to the clinical target volume. For the dose-volume constraints of organs at risk (OARs), the same constraints as 54 Gy plans were used so as not to increase the toxicity.

resultsAll created plans fulfilled the dose-volume constraints of all targets and OARs. The median estimated beam-on time was 108.5 s. For patient-specific quality assurance, the global gamma passing rates (3%/2 mm) with 10% dose threshold criteria were greater than 93% in all cases and greater than 95% in 11 cases.

conclusionSIB-hHF-RT plans were developed that fulfill the acceptable dose-volume constraints and pass patient-specific quality assurance. We believe these plans can be applied to selected patients with nonmetastatic prostate cancer.
