Dose-Escalated Intensity-Modulated Radiotherapy for the Management of Locally Advanced Cervical Cancer.
Article in Cureus, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Objective In this study, we aimed to assess the response and toxicity related to dose escalation in external beam radiation therapy (EBRT) using intensity-modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) with weekly concurrent cisplatin followed by de-escalated brachytherapy (BT) in locally advanced carcinoma cervix of International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics (FIGO) 2018 stage IIB-IIIC1. Materials and methods Fifty-two patients diagnosed with cervical cancer FIGO 2018 stage IIB-IIIC1 were treated with curative intent from November 2019 to October 2021. The dose of 50 Gy was prescribed for the primary tumor volume and elective pelvic nodal volume followed by a primary boost to a dose of 20 Gy. Gross lymph node (LN) of size >1 cm after EBRT completion received a sequential nodal boost of 10 Gy. All patients received concurrent cisplatin to a dose of 40 mg/m
