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

We report the case of an 87-year-old woman with upper tract urothelial carcinoma at the left renal pelvis. She received stereotactic body radiotherapy of 35 Gy in five fractions for palliative treatment of hematuria that was delivered by a 1.5-T magnetic resonance (MR) imaging-guided linear accelerator. Her symptom was relieved after treatment, and posttreatment imaging revealed a complete response of the primary tumor. Thus, this case showed that stereotactic MR-guided radiotherapy could be an appealing option for inoperable patients although radiotherapy is infrequently mentioned in the current treatment guideline of upper tract urothelial carcinoma. Daily adaptive planning from MR images obtained before treatment could improve the target dose and minimize the organ at risk dose. This may lead to a decrease in radiation adverse effects including worsening renal function due to the renal pelvis tumor's proximity to the kidney.
