Review in Dermatologie (Heidelberg, Germany), 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
backgroundPrimary cutaneous lymphomas (CL) are highly radiosensitive. Therefore, radiotherapy is an integral part of multimodality treatment.
aimThe present work provides an overview of indications, technical developments, and dose concepts for total skin electron beam therapy (TSEBT), local radiotherapy as well as maintenance therapy, and current combination studies regarding cutaneous T‑ and B‑cell lymphomas. MATERIALS AND
methodsWe performed a selective literature search in the PubMed database on the topic of radiotherapy for CL and a search for current studies using clinicaltrials.gov. Furthermore, we describe our own treatment strategies and summarize national and international guidelines.
resultsLow-dose TSEBT is nationally and internationally recommended as an alternative to conventional 36 Gy TSEBT. The main advantages are better tolerability, the possibility of retreatment, a shorter treatment course (approximately 3 weeks), and a short time to response. In current studies, TSEBT is usually delivered to a total dose of 12 Gy and combined with immunotherapy and epigenetic therapy. Local radiotherapy is indicated for mycosis fungoides (MF) tumors and is a curative treatment regimen for other CL, particularly primary cutaneous B‑cell lymphomas.
conclusionTSEBT is a very effective treatment for MF and is a highly effective palliative treatment, leading to rapid symptom relief and improvement in quality of life. It is an important treatment option, especially in patients with extensive generalized lesions or advanced tumor stage. Local radiation is used as part of TSEBT for tumors and as a boost to undertreated areas. Other CLs are primarily curable with local radiotherapy.
