Actinium-225 Targeted Agents: Where Are We Now?
Review in Brachytherapy. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 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
α-particle targeted radionuclide therapy has shown promise for optimal cancer management, an exciting new era for brachytherapy. Alpha-emitting nuclides can have significant advantages over gamma- and beta-emitters due to their high linear energy transfer (LET). While their limited path length results in more specific tumor 0kill with less damage to surrounding normal tissues, their high LET can produce substantially more lethal double strand DNA breaks per radiation track than beta particles. Over the last decade, the physical and chemical attributes of Actinium-225 (
