A knowledge graph representation of baseline characteristics for the Dutch proton therapy research registry.
Article in Clinical and translational radiation oncology, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Cancer registries collect multisource data and provide valuable information that can lead to unique research opportunities. In the Netherlands, a registry and model-based approach (MBA) are used for the selection of patients that are eligible for proton therapy. We collected baseline characteristics including demographic, clinical, tumour and treatment information. These data were transformed into a machine readable format using the FAIR (Findable, Accessible, Interoperable, Reusable) data principles and resulted in a knowledge graph with baseline characteristics of proton therapy patients. With this approach, we enable the possibility of linking external data sources and optimal flexibility to easily adapt the data structure of the existing knowledge graph to the needs of the clinic.
