Comparison of three differently shaped ROIs in free breathing breast radiotherapy setup using surface guidance with AlignRT
Article in Reports of practical oncology and radiotherapy : journal of Greatpoland Cancer Center in Poznan and Polish Society of Radiation Oncology, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 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
backgroundSetup accuracy within adjuvant radiotherapy of breast cancer treated in free breathing is well studied, but a comparison of the typical regions of interest (ROI) used in surface guided radiation therapy (SGRT) does not exist. The aim of this study was to estimate the setup accuracy obtained with differently shaped ROIs in SGRT. MATERIALS AND
methodsA total of 573 orthogonal image pairs were analyzed from free breathing breast patients in two groups: positioning using AlignRT
resultsLess isocenter variance was found in Group A than in Group L. Rotations and posture errors were larger in group L than in Group A (p ≤ 0.05). Rotation error was smaller with T-shaped ROI than with O- or B-shape (p = 0.01-0.04).
