The utility of 1.5 tesla MR-guided adaptive stereotactic body radiotherapy for recurrent ovarian tumor - Case reports and review of the literature.

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
introductionAlthough epithelioid ovarian cancer (EOC) is a radiosensitive tumor and radiotherapy (RT) played a significant role in adjuvant treatment management in the past, the role of RT has evolved with the advent of platinum-based chemotherapy regimens. Nonetheless, modern RT techniques may be useful in certain patients particularly those with recurrent disease. PRESENTATION OF CASE: After surgery and chemotherapy, two patients, aged 57 and 70, presented with recurrent lesions in the parailiac region. The recurrent lesions were treated with high field 1.5-Tesla MR-Linac treatment in 5 fractions at a dose of 30 Gy. The patients tolerated the treatment well and were disease free after 12 and 20 months of magnetic resonance guided radiotherapy (MRgRT), respectively. DISCUSSION: MRgRT is a novel and rapidly evolving technology that allows for the highly precise treatment of even mobile targets through direct visualization of the tumor. The majority of patients with EOC frequently present with abdominal-pelvic recurrences. It has been demonstrated that EOC requires high radiation doses for curative treatment. MR-Linac enables monitoring of organ motion during treatment, which is necessary for delivering higher doses to target volumes while sparing surrounding organs.
conclusionTo reduce radiation doses to nearby normal tissues, MRgRT allows for the delivery of hypofractionated RT with tight safety margins. Regardless of initial resistance or gradual development of intolerance to standard chemotherapy regimens, the role of RT in patients with persistent or recurrent EOC should be reconsidered.
