Stereotactic Body Radiotherapy for Locally Advanced Pancreatic Cancer Using Optical Surface Management System - AlignRT as an Optical Body Surface Motion Management in Deep Breath Hold Patients: Results from a Single-Arm Retrospective Study.
Article in Cancer management and research, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Purpose: To assess the efficacy and safety of stereotactic body radiotherapy for patients with unresectable, locally advanced pancreatic cancer using Optical Surface Management System - AlignRT (OSMS-AlignRT) as an optical body surface motion management in deep breath hold. Patients and Methods: Forty-five patients diagnosed with locally advanced pancreatic cancer were treated with stereotactic body radiotherapy in 3 or 5 fractions, and received varying BED Results: Data from forty-five patients were analyzed. Median follow-up was 15 months. One-year freedom from local progression and survival were 95.5% and 71.1%, respectively. Median progression-free survival was 14 months. Median overall survival from diagnosis for all patients was 17 months, and 19 months for patients alive at the time of analysis. No patient had >G2 toxicity. Conclusion: Stereotactic body radiotherapy for locally advanced pancreatic cancer using OSMS-AlignRT as optical body surface motion management in deep breath hold patients is an effective and safe local treatment option, with no >G2 toxicity, and could be a promising therapeutic option with acceptable toxicity, either as a single treatment or in a multimodal regimen. OSMS-AlignRT provided accurate and reliable body surface motion management during stereotactic body radiotherapy.
