Computational Approach for Spatially Fractionated Radiation Therapy (SFRT) and Immunological Response in Precision Radiation Therapy.
Article in Journal of personalized medicine, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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 field of precision radiation therapy has seen remarkable advancements in both experimental and computational methods. Recent literature has introduced various approaches such as Spatially Fractionated Radiation Therapy (SFRT). This unconventional treatment, demanding high-precision radiotherapy, has shown promising clinical outcomes. A comprehensive computational scheme for SFRT, extrapolated from a case report, is proposed. This framework exhibits exceptional flexibility, accommodating diverse initial conditions (shape, inhomogeneity, etc.) and enabling specific choices for sub-volume selection with administrated higher radiation doses. The approach integrates the standard linear quadratic model and, significantly, considers the activation of the immune system due to radiotherapy. This activation enhances the immune response in comparison to the untreated case. We delve into the distinct roles of the native immune system, immune activation by radiation, and post-radiotherapy immunotherapy, discussing their implications for either complete recovery or disease regrowth.
