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
Background: The role of consolidation mediastinal radiotherapy (RT) for mediastinal bulky disease in advanced-stage classical Hodgkin lymphoma (cHL) is controversial in the positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET-CT) era. Materials and methods: We reviewed the medical charts of patients with advanced-stage (clinical stage IIX-IVX) cHL and mediastinal bulky that achieved a complete response after first line chemotherapy treatment between August 2010 and December 2020 and compared the results of those who received with those who did not receive consolidation mediastinal RT. Inclusion criteria required PET-CT imaging for staging and response assessment. Results: We included 115 patients; 91 received mediastinal RT and 24 did not. Patient's characteristics were balanced between the two groups. The median age in patients that received and did not receive mediastinal RT was 28 years and 24.5 years, respectively. Median International Prognostic Score among patients that received and did not receive mediastinal RT was 2 and 2.5, respectively. Disease free survival (DFS) was statistically better in patients that received mediastinal RT (p = 0.013). Two-year DFS for patients that received and did not receive mediastinal RT was 95.2% [95% confidence interval (95% CI): 87.6-98.2%] and 76.4% (95% CI: 52.2-89.4%), respectively. Overall survival (OS) was not different between the two groups (p = 0.617). In multivariate analysis, not receiving mediastinal radiotherapy and only achieving partial response ( Conclusion: DFS, but not OS, was superior in patients that received mediastinal RT.
