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

backgroundTo evaluate the dosimetric changes in the target volume and organs at risk (OARs) of patients with left breast cancer (LBC) who underwent intensity-modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) based on a deformation registration (DF) method.

methodsSixteen patients with LBC treated with 6 MV X-ray IMRT were retrospectively analyzed. All targets included the lymph node drainage area and chest wall. All patients underwent CT for simulation of the primary positioning and repositioning. Primary and secondary treatment plans were developed using primary positioning CT (CT

resultsThe clinical target volume of CT

conclusionsBecause of small changes in the target and OAR volumes during radiotherapy, we suggest the first IMRT plan could be used to evaluate the dose-volume indices of the lungs and heart for these patients.
