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

Purpose: We aimed to develop Lyman-Kutcher-Burman (LKB) and multivariable normal tissue complication probability (NTCP) models to predict the risk of radiation-induced hypothyroidism (RIHT) in breast cancer patients. Materials and methods: A total of 1,063 breast cancer patients who underwent whole breast irradiation between 2009 and 2016 were analyzed. Individual dose-volume histograms were used to generate LKB and multivariable logistic regression models. LKB model was fit using the thyroid radiation dose-volume parameters. A multivariable model was constructed to identify potential dosimetric and clinical parameters associated with RIHT. Internal validation was conducted using bootstrapping techniques, and model performance was evaluated using the area under the curve (AUC) and Hosmer-Lemeshow (HL) goodness-of-fit test. Results: RIHT developed in 4 % of patients with a median follow-up of 77.7 months. LKB and multivariable NTCP models exhibited significant agreement between the predicted and observed results (HL Conclusions: Systemic therapy, age, and V10 of the thyroid were identified as strong risk factors for the development of RIHT. Our NTCP models provide valuable insights to clinicians for predicting and preventing hypothyroidism by identifying high-risk patients.
