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
Introduction: Organ motion (OM) and volumetric changes pose challenges in radiotherapy (RT) for locally advanced cervical cancer (LACC). Magnetic Resonance-guided Radiotherapy (MRgRT) combines improved MRI contrast with adaptive RT plans for daily anatomical changes. Our goal was to analyze cervico-uterine structure (CUS) changes during RT to develop strategies for managing OM. Materials and methods: LACC patients received chemoradiation by MRIdian system with a simultaneous integrated boost (SIB) protocol. Prescription doses of 55-50.6 Gy at PTV1 and 45-39.6 Gy at PTV2 were given in 22 and 25 fractions. Daily MRI scans were co-registered with planning scans and CUS changes were assessed.Six PTVs were created by adding 0.5, 0.7, 1, 1.3, 1.5, and 2 cm margins to the CUS, based on the simulation MRI. Adequate margins were determined to include 95 % of the CUSs throughout the entire treatment in 95 % of patients. Results: Analysis of 15 LACC patients and 372 MR scans showed a 31 % median CUS volume decrease. Asymmetric margins of 2 cm cranially, 0.5 cm caudally, 1.5 cm posteriorly, 2 cm anteriorly, and 1.5 cm on both sides were optimal for PTV, adapting to CUS variations. Post-14th fraction, smaller margins of 0.7 cm cranially, 0.5 cm caudally, 1.3 cm posteriorly, 1.3 cm anteriorly, and 1.3 cm on both sides sufficed. Conclusion: CUS mobility varies during RT, suggesting reduced PTV margins after the third week. MRgRT with adaptive strategies optimizes dose delivery, emphasizing the importance of streamlined IGRT with reduced PTV margins using a tailored MRgRT workflow with hybrid MRI-guided systems.
