Using ANN for thermal neutron shield designing for BNCT treatment room.

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
Occupational radiation protection should be applied to the design of treatment rooms for various radiation therapy techniques, including BNCT, where escaping particles from the beam port of the beam shaping assembly (BSA) may reach the walls or penetrate through the entrance door. The focus of the present study is to design an alternative shielding material, other than the conventional material of lead, that can be considered as the material used in the door and be able to effectively absorb the BSA neutrons which have slowed down to the thermal energy range of
