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

objectivesA portable respiratory training system with a gyroscope sensor (gyroscope respiratory training system [GRTS]) was developed and the feasibility of respiratory training was evaluated.

methodsSimulated respiratory waveforms from a respiratory motion phantom and actual respirator waveforms from volunteers were acquired using the GRTS and Respiratory Gating for Scanners system (RGSC). Respiratory training was evaluated by comparing the stability and reproducibility of respiratory waveforms from patients undergoing expiratory breath-hold radiation therapy, with and without the GRTS. The stability and reproducibility of respiratory waveforms were assessed by root mean square error and gold marker placement-based success rate of expiratory breath-hold, respectively.

resultsThe absolute mean difference for sinusoidal waveforms between the GRTS and RGSC was 2.0%. Among volunteers, the mean percentages of errors within ±15% of the respiratory waveforms acquired by the GRTS and RGSC were 96.1% for free breathing and 88.2% for expiratory breath-hold. The mean root mean square error and success rate of expiratory breath-hold (standard deviation) with and without the GRTS were 0.65 (0.24) and 0.88 (0.89) cm and 91.0% (6.9) and 89.1% (11.6), respectively.

conclusionsRespiratory waveforms acquired by the GRTS exhibit good agreement with waveforms acquired by the RGSC. Respiratory training with the GRTS reduces inter-patient variability in respiratory waveforms, thereby improving the success of expiratory breath-hold radiation therapy. ADVANCES IN KNOWLEDGE: A respiratory training system with a gyroscope sensor is inexpensive and portable, making it ideal for respiratory training. This is the first report concerning clinical implementation of a respiratory training system.
