Clinical evidence for synergy between immunotherapy and radiotherapy (SITAR).
Review in Journal of medical imaging and radiation oncology, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 11 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
Previous preclinical and clinical trials have shown promising antitumour activity and toxicity profile when employing the 'Synergy between Immunotherapy and Radiotherapy' (SITAR) strategy. Approximately, one in seven radiation therapy studies currently recruiting is investigating SITAR. This article reviews the range of cancers known to respond to immunotherapy and publications analysing SITAR. It sets the background for work that needs to be done in future clinical trials. It also reviews the potential toxicities of immunotherapy and discusses areas where caution is required when combining treatments.
