Hyperfractionation versus Conventional Fractionation of Preoperative Intensity-Modulated Radiotherapy with Oral Capecitabine in Locally Advanced Mid-Low Rectal Cancer: A Propensity Score Matching Study.
Article in Journal of oncology, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It has been retracted, and should not be counted. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Purpose: In theory, the hyperfractionated radiotherapy can enhance biological effect dose against tumor and alleviate normal tissue toxicity. This study is to assess the efficacy and safety of preoperative hyperfractionated intensity-modulated radiotherapy (IMRT) with oral capecitabine in patients with locally advanced rectal cancer (LARC). Methods: We retrospectively screened patients with LARC from January 2015 to June 2016. Patients that received hyperfractionated IMRT or conventional fractionated IMRT were eligible in the hyperfractionation (HF) group or conventional fractionation (CF) group, respectively. The primary outcome was the complete response rate. Secondary outcomes included toxicity, postoperative complications, anus-reservation operation rate, local recurrence and distant metastases rate, overall survival (OS), cancer-specific survival (CSS), and disease-free survival (DFS). Results: 335 patients were included in the analysis. The complete response rate for the hyperfractionated and conventional fractionated IMRT was 20.41% vs. 23.47% ( Conclusions: The preoperative hyperfractionated IMRT with oral capecitabine, with an acceptable toxicity and favorable response and survival, could reduce the rate of secondary surgery.
