Correlation of total reference air-kerma (TRAK) to prescription isodose surface volume in vaginal cylinder high-dose-rate brachytherapy.
Article in Journal of contemporary brachytherapy, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
purposeThe purpose of this technical note was to investigate correlation of total reference air-kerma (TRAK) with volume enclosed by the prescription isodose surface in vaginal cylinder high-dose-rate (HDR) brachytherapy. MATERIAL AND
methodsTreatment plans of 175 gynecological cancer patients treated at our institution with iridium-192 (
resultsTotal reference air-kerma correlated with the total volume enclosed by the prescription isodose via ISV
conclusionsThe correlation of TRAK to the vaginal tissue volume encompassed by the prescription dose surface yields a useful predictive equation. The TRAK treatment time relationship enables quick verification of planned treatment time by knowing TRAK in any HDR brachytherapy application.
