Imaging-Based Patterns of Failure following Re-Irradiation for Recurrent/Progressive High-Grade Glioma.
Article in Journal of personalized medicine, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
backgroundRe-irradiation (ReRT) is an effective treatment modality in appropriately selected patients with recurrent/progressive high-grade glioma (HGG). The literature is limited regarding recurrence patterns following ReRT, which was investigated in the current study.
methodsPatients with available radiation (RT) contours, dosimetry, and imaging-based evidence of recurrence were included in the retrospective study. All patients were treated with fractionated focal conformal RT. Recurrence was detected on imaging with magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and/ or amino-acid positron emission tomography (PET), which was co-registered with the RT planning dataset. Failure patterns were classified as central, marginal, and distant if >80%, 20-80%, or <20% of the recurrence volumes were within 95% isodose lines, respectively.
resultsThirty-seven patients were included in the current analysis. A total of 92% of patients had undergone surgery before ReRT, and 84% received chemotherapy. The median time to recurrence was 9 months. Central, marginal, and distant failures were seen in 27 (73%), 4 (11%), and 6 (16%) patients, respectively. None of the patient-, disease-, or treatment-related factors were significantly different across different recurrence patterns.
conclusionFailures are seen predominantly within the high-dose region following ReRT in recurrent/ progressive HGG.
