Predictors of Definitive Treatment Interruptions of Long-Course Neoadjuvant Chemoradiotherapy in Locally Advanced Rectal Cancer.
Article in Cureus, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Introduction To identify predictors of definitive treatment interruptions (DTI) of the neoadjuvant long-course radiotherapy (LCRT) in locally advanced rectal cancer (LARC), and to determine their impact on clinical outcomes. Methods Patients with stage II-III LARC treated between 2009-2018 were retrospectively analyzed (n=101, median FU 49.5 months). Logistic regression models evaluated the impact of relevant clinical variables on grade 3 or greater (G3+) acute toxicity, definitive treatment interruption (DTI), pCR, and definitive ostomy (dOST) rates. The secondary outcomes were LRC, MFS, PFS, CSS, and OS. Results The incidences of grade 3 and 4 toxicities were 25.3%, and 1.1%, respectively. The most common G3+ toxicities were peri-anal dermatitis (14.7%) and diarrhea (7.4%), which were more frequent in females (
