Cone-beam computed tomography-guided online-adaptive radiotherapy for inoperable right colon cancer: First in human.
Article in Technical innovations & patient support in radiation oncology, 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
We report the case of a medically inoperable patient with localised colon cancer. Due to symptomatic bleeding, definitive radiotherapy (5 daily fractions of 5 Gy) has been performed using cone-beam computed tomography-based online-adaptive radiotherapy (ART). Online-ART enables compensation of interfraction motion of abdominal organs by performing daily delineation of organs at risk (OARs) and target volumes. Daily treatment replanning maximised target volume coverage while lowering the dose to OARs. Intrafraction variation of the tumour was still significant and had to be incorporated in the planning target volume margin computation. After the treatment, the patient did not develop any acute radiotherapy-induced adverse events and had no further rectal bleeding either at the end of the radiotherapy or at oncological follow-up 4 months later. Online-ART for colon cancer is feasible and is a valuable alternative when surgery is not an option.
