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

objectivesThe purpose of this study was to explore the influence of individual patient factors, such as volume of the planning target volume (PTV) (V

methodsNinety-six patients were selected for this study. Radiation doses of 50 Gy and a simultaneous dose of 60 Gy in 25 fractions were administered to the whole breast and tumor bed, respectively. The intensity modulation plan (IMRT) of each patient uses both physical parameters and an equivalent uniform dose (EUD) to optimize the target function. Univariate and multivariate linear regression were used to analyze the relationship between predictive impact factors and OAR percent dose volume, conformity index (CI), and homogeneity index (HI).

resultsThe average CI and HI values of the left breast cancer plan were 0.595 ± 0.071 (0.3-0.72) and 1.095 ± 0.023 (1.06-1.18), respectively. The CTR (B = 0.21, P = 0.045), V

conclusionsCTR, CLD, and MHD can predict the rationality of the parameters of the left breast cancer IMRT. The calculation formula generated based on this information can help the physicist choose the optimal radiation field setting method and improve the quality of the treatment plan.
