Fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography (FDG/PET) shows the effect of carbon-ion radiotherapy (CIRT); with pathologic confirmation.
Article in Radiology case reports, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Response evaluation of carbon-ion radiotherapy poses a diagnostic challenge. Due to its functional aspects, fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography (FDG/PET) has a role in the diagnosis of photon radiation therapy. In addition, several studies suggested that FDG/PET may be useful to select the optimal site for performing a diagnostic biopsy. Here, we report a 73-year-old female in which FDG/PET was effective in determining the recurrence of liposarcoma and the therapeutic effect. Based on the results of FDG/PET, we could make a pathologic definitive diagnosis and selectively performing carbon-ion radiotherapy for active tumors.
