Evaluation of RTT education - Is it fit for the present: A report on the ESTRO radiation therapist workshop.
Article in Technical innovations & patient support in radiation oncology, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
Education is key in preparing healthcare professionals for the current and future needs of the clinical environment. Hence, ESTRO facilitated a workshop, with a track focusing on radiation therapists' (RTT) education and whether it is fit for the current demands of RTTs. An international group of participants with academic and clinical backgrounds discussed the current situation in their respective working environments, evaluated the challenges in RTT education, and highlighted opportunities and possible solutions to meet current and future needs. Key outcomes highlighted the importance of strengthening collaboration between clinical and academic staff.
