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

BACKGROUND/

aimWe compared three-dimensional conformal radiotherapy (3D-CRT) with intensity-modulated radiotherapy (IMRT) for avoiding dosimetric risk factors related to pulmonary complications after neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy followed by surgery (NACRT-S) for non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). PATIENTS AND

methodsWe performed simulations in 11 patients with dosimetric risk factors during their treatment with NACRT-S for NSCLC. Radiation treatment plans were generated using 3D-CRT and IMRT to avoid dosimetric risk factors. Regarding dose-volume histogram (DVH) parameters, we calculated the percentage of lung volume that received more than x Gy (V

resultsV

conclusionIMRT is more useful than 3D-CRT for avoiding dosimetric risk factors in NACRT-S for NSCLC. For further improvements in avoiding these factors, respiratory motion managements to reduce the length of the PTV may be required for patients with middle or lower lobe tumors.
