Considerations regarding carotid artery dose in radiotherapy of the cervical spine.
Article in Clinical and translational radiation oncology, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
Radiation to the carotid arteries, e.g. in the context of head and neck cancer treatment, is one of several risk factors for artery stenosis. In principle, this fact may also have implications for stereotactic cervical spine radiotherapy, because long-term survival can be achieved in patients with oligometastatic disease and favorable prognostic features. Here, we suggest that radiation dose distributions with reduced dose to the carotid artery are achievable when planning stereotactic cervical spine radiotherapy. Patients with high likelihood of long-term survival may benefit from such vessel-sparing approaches.
