A blinded-endpoint, randomized controlled trial of Sanyrene with natural active ingredient for prophylaxis of radiation dermatitis in patients receiving radiotherapy.
Trial report in Radiation oncology (London, England), 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
backgroundRandomized controlled study was conducted to evaluate the efficacy of Sanyrene® vs. control intervention (DaBao®, a complex of hyaluronic acid and Vitamin E) for acute radiation dermatitis in patients receiving radiotherapy.
methodsPatients with breast cancer or head and neck cancer undergoing radiotherapy (≥ 50 Gy) were eligible. Participants were randomly assigned to either Sanyrene arm or control intervention arm in a ratio of 1:1. The primary endpoint was incidence rate of ≥ grade 2 radiation induced dermatitis. (Trial Registration: ChiCTR2100050910, registration date: 9/7/2021)
resultsA total of 102 eligible patients were randomly assigned into the study. The rate of ≥ grade 2 radiation dermatitis was 22% in Sanyrene group, as compared with 67.3% in the control intervention group (P<0.001). The incidence of grade 3 radiation dermatitis was 20.4% and 8.0% in control intervention group and Sanyrene group, respectively (P = 0.076). Patients in Sanyrene group had a longer median time to reach ≥ grade 2 radiation dermatitis compared to these in control intervention group, with hazard ratio of 0.231 (95%CI:0.116-0.458, p < 0.001). Mean score of SD-16 were much higher in control intervention group than Sanyrene group at end of radiotherapy (25 vs.8.3), 2 weeks after radiotherapy (22.9 vs. 0.5) and 4 weeks after radiotherapy (4.2 vs.0), with significantly statistical difference between two groups.
conclusionsThis trial suggests that Sanyrene is effective on preventing serious radiation dermatitis and improving skin related quality of life in patients with breast cancer or head and neck cancer receiving radiotherapy.
