Assessing the Adequacy of Traditional Vertebral Landmarks as Upper Border of Whole Pelvic Radiotherapy Field for Stage IB2-IIB Cervical Cancer.

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
This study investigates the impact of insufficient common iliac lymph node (CIN) irradiation on treatment outcomes in patients with stage IB2-IIB cervical cancer receiving concurrent chemoradiotherapy (CCRT). We retrospectively analyzed 68 patients with Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics stage IB2-IIB, treated with weekly cisplatin-based CCRT from 2008 to 2018. Patients received external-beam whole pelvic radiotherapy (WPRT) and concurrent cisplatin chemotherapy, followed by high-dose-rate brachytherapy. The WPRT upper border was at L4-5 in 61 patients and L3-4 in 7 patients. Thirty-seven patients had the CIN area fully included (full-CIN group), while 31 had partial inclusion (partial-CIN group). Recurrence rates and survival outcomes were analyzed over a median follow-up of 111 months. Patient characteristics and the irradiated dose were comparable. Treatment failure occurred in three patients (8.1%) in the full-CIN group and in six patients (19.4%) in the partial-CIN group, with CIN and para-aortic lymph node recurrence in two and one patients, respectively. The 5-year cumulative recurrence rate was 0% for the full-CIN group and 11.4% for the partial-CIN group (
