Cone-beam computed tomography-guided online adaptive radiotherapy for pharyngeal cancer with whole neck irradiation: dose-volume histogram analysis between adapted and scheduled plans.
Article in Journal of radiation research, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
The present study aimed to evaluate whether an adapted plan with Ethos™ could be used for pharyngeal cancer. Ten patients with pharyngeal cancer who underwent chemoradiotherapy with available daily cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) data were included. Simulated treatments were generated on the Ethos™ treatment emulator using CBCTs every four to five fractions for two plans: adapted and scheduled. The simulated treatments were divided into three groups: early (first-second week), middle (third-fourth week), and late (fifth-seventh week) periods. Dose-volume histogram parameters were compared for each period between the adapted and scheduled plans in terms of the planning target volume (PTV) (D98%, D95%, D50% and D2%), spinal cord (Dmax and D1cc), brainstem (Dmax) and ipsilateral and contralateral parotid glands (Dmedian and Dmean). The PTV D98%, D95% and D2% of the adapted plan were significantly higher than those of the scheduled plans in all periods, except for D98% in the late period. The adapted plan significantly reduced the spinal cord Dmax and D1cc compared with the scheduled plan in all periods. Ipsilateral and contralateral parotid glands Dmean of the adapted plan were lower than those of scheduled plan in the late period. In conclusion, the present study revealed that the adapted plans could maintain PTV coverage while reducing the doses to organs at risk in each period compared with scheduled plans.
