Pneumonitis after Stereotactic Thoracic Radioimmunotherapy with Checkpoint Inhibitors: Exploration of the Dose-Volume-Effect Correlation.
Article in Cancers, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Thoracic stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) is extensively used in combination with immune checkpoint blockade (ICB). While current evidence suggests that the occurrence of pneumonitis as a side effect of both treatments is not enhanced for the combination, the dose-volume correlation remains unclear. We investigate dose-volume-effect correlations for pneumonitis after combined SBRT + ICB. We analyzed patient clinical characteristics and dosimetric data for 42 data sets for thoracic SBRT with ICB treatment (13) and without (29). Dose volumes were converted into 2 Gy equivalent doses (EQD2), allowing for dosimetric comparison of different fractionation regimes. Pneumonitis volumes were delineated and corresponding DVHs were analyzed. We noticed a shift towards lower doses for combined SBRT + ICB treatment, supported by a trend of smaller areas under the curve (AUC) for SBRT+ ICB (median AUC 1337.37 vs. 5799.10,
