1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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: The purpose of this study is to evaluate the impact of intrafraction pelvic motion by comparing the adapted plan dose (APD) and the computed delivered dose of the day (DDOTD) for patients with prostate cancer (PCa) treated with SBRT on the MR-Linac. Methods: Twenty patients with PCa treated with MR-guided adaptive SBRT were included. A 9-field IMRT distribution was adapted based on the anatomy of the day to deliver a total prescription dose of 3000 cGy in 5 fractions to the prostate plus a 5 mm isotropic margin. Prostate, bladder, and rectum were re-contoured on the MR-image acquired during treatment delivery (MR Results: Target coverage was met for all fractions, however, computed DDOTD was significantly less than the APD (p < 0.05). During an average treatment of 53 min, mean bladder volume increased by 116%, which led to a significant decrease in the DDOTD bladder D40% (p < 0.001). However, DDOTD to bladder 5 cc was significantly higher (p < 0.001) than APD. Rectum intrafraction changes were observed based on a volume change of -20% to 83% and presence of significant dose changes from APD to DDOTD for rectum D20% (p < 0.05) and D1cc (p < 0.0001). Conclusions: Intrafraction motion observed during prostate SBRT treatment on the MR-Linac have dosimetric impacts on both the target and organs at risk. Post-treatment computation using DDOTD may inform adaptation beyond anatomic changes in subsequent treatment fractions to best capitalize on MR-Linac technology and widen the therapeutic index of SBRT for PCa.
