Efficacy and safety of FDG-PET for determining target volume during intensity-modulated radiotherapy for head and neck cancer involving the oral level.

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
purposeTo determine the efficacy and safety of target volume determination by
methodsWe prospectively treated 10 consecutive consenting patients with HNSCC using IMRT, with target volumes determined by PET-CT. Gross tumor volume (GTV) and clinical target volume (CTV) at the oral level were determined by two radiation oncologists for CT, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), and PET-CT. Differences in target volume (GTV
resultsThe mean GTV was smallest for GTV
conclusionsThe results suggest that the target volume determined by PET-CT could safely reduce GTV size and interobserver variability in patients with locally advanced HNSCC extending into the oral cavity or oropharynx undergoing IMRT.
