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

purposeThis research aimed to develop a prediction model to assess bladder wall dosimetry during radiotherapy for patients with pelvic tumors, thereby facilitating the refinement and evaluation of radiotherapy treatment plans to mitigate bladder toxicity.

methodsRadiotherapy treatment plans of 49 rectal cancer patients and 45 gynecologic cancer patients were collected, and multiple linear regression analyses were used to generate prediction models for bladder wall dose parameters (

resultsModels derived from individual disease data outperformed those derived from combined datasets. Predicted bladder wall dose parameters were accurate, with the majority of initial calculated values for new patients falling within the 95% confidence interval of the model predictions. There was a robust correlation between the predicted and actual dose metrics, with a correlation coefficient of 0.943. Using the predicted values to optimize treatment plans significantly reduced bladder wall dose (p

conclusionThe formulated prediction model provides a valuable tool for predicting and minimizing bladder wall dose and for optimizing and evaluating radiotherapy treatment plans for pelvic tumor patients. This approach holds promise for reducing bladder toxicity and potentially improving patient outcomes.
