Effect of definitive hypo-fractionated radiotherapy concurrent with weekly cisplatin in locally advanced squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck.
Article in Journal of medicine and life, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
To mitigate the risk of COVID-19 infection in cancer patients, it is recommended to utilize hypo-fractionated treatment schedules that aim to minimize the overall duration of treatment. In this study, we aimed to determine whether hypo-fractionated intensity-modulated radiotherapy (hypo-IMRT) with concurrent chemotherapy was practical, effective, and could achieve acceptable tumor control rates for squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck (SCCHN). We enrolled 62 patients with high-risk stage II, stage III, and IVA SCCHN who received hypo-IMRT (62.5 Gy in 25 fractions over 5 weeks 2.5Gy/fraction with weekly cisplatin 40 mg/m
