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

purposeWe report the retrospective data of a cohort of patients who received stereotactic body radiotherapy for pulmonary oligometastases, aiming to assess the clinical factors potentially affecting clinical outcomes.

methodsThe present series reports the outcomes of a cohort of 71 patients with pulmonary oligometastases with no extrapulmonary disease. All patients were treated with stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) performed with volumetric modulated arc therapy-image guided radiotherapy (VMAT-IGRT) to up to five secondary lesions. Survival estimates were performed using the Kaplan-Meier method.

resultsA total of 98 lesions in 71 patients were treated from February 2014 to August 2020. The most frequent histologies were colorectal in 37.7%, lung cancer in 44.8%, head and neck cancer in 8.1%, and other in 9.4%. Median age was 71 years (range 32-93 years). Concurrent systemic therapy was administered in 32.3%. SBRT was delivered to a median total dose of 60 Gy (range 55-70 Gy) in 3-10 fractions for a median BED
