No Increase in Acute or Late Radiation Toxicities in Patients With Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome Receiving Adjuvant Breast Radiation Therapy: A Report of Four Cases With Extended Follow-Up.
Article in Cureus, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Ehlers-Danlos syndrome (EDS) consists of a heterogeneous group of congenital collagen formation disorders characterised by skin hyperextensibility, atrophic scarring, and generalized joint hypermobility. Collagen vascular disorders have been implicated in increased incidence and severity of radiation toxicities; however, there are limited reports on the safety of radiation therapy with EDS. We identified all patients with EDS who received adjuvant conventional and hypofractionated breast radiation therapy at our institution and reviewed patient, treatment, and toxicity characteristics. Four patients were identified with a median follow-up of 13.2 months. Acute toxicities were limited to grade 1 dermatitis in all four patients. No late toxicities were seen. In this report, radiation therapy to the breast with conventional and hypofractionated regimens resulted in no significant acute or late toxicity.
