Development of a novel detection method for changes in lung conditions during radiotherapy using a temporal subtraction technique.
Article in Physical and engineering sciences in medicine, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
We aimed to develop a novel method of detecting changes in lung conditions during radiotherapy using temporal subtraction technique. Twenty patients who underwent radiotherapy were retrospectively assessed by calculating optimal direct similarity error (ODSE) between initial and mid-treatment registered images. Patients were grouped according to region in tumor size and atelectasis for lung of < 20 or ≥ 20 cm
