Efficacity of Deep Inspiration Breath Hold and Intensity-Modulated Radiotherapy in Preventing Perfusion Defect for Left Sided Breast Cancer (EDIPE): A Prospective Cohort Study Protocol.

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
Breast radiotherapy can lead to radiation-induced cardiac disease, particularly in left breast cancers. Recent studies have shown that subclinical cardiac lesions, such as myocardial perfusion deficits, may occur early after radiotherapy. The primary method for irradiating breast cancer, known as opposite tangential field radiotherapy, can cause the anterior interventricular coronary artery to receive a high dose of radiation during left breast irradiation. To explore alternative approaches that could reduce the risk of myocardial perfusion defects in patients with left breast cancer, we plan to conduct a prospective single-center study using a combination of deep inspiration breath hold radiotherapy and intensity modulated radiation therapy. The study will use stress and, if necessary, resting myocardial scintigraphy to assess myocardial perfusion. The trial aims to show that reducing the cardiac dose with these techniques can prevent the appearance of early (3-month) and medium-term (6- and 12-month) perfusion disorders.
