Evaluation of two automated treatment planning techniques for multiple brain metastases using a single isocenter.

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
Two automated treatment planning techniques were evaluated for multiple brain metastases using a single isocenter. One technique is knowledge-based planning (KBP) using a stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) model in Eclipse treatment planning system (TPS); and the other is the Multiple Brain Mets (MBM) SRS technique in Brainlab Elements TPS. Eighteen plans each with 3-10 lesions were used for the study. Plan evaluation metrics included the planning target volume (PTV) coverage, conformity index (CI), total monitor units (MUs), plan optimization time, brain V
