Accelerated Radiotherapy Alone Versus Chemoradiation in Locally Advanced Carcinoma Cervix: Long-Term Outcomes.
Article in Cureus, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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 Chemoradiation (CRT) is the standard of care for the treatment of carcinoma cervix, more benefits of CRT are seen in the early stage as compared to a locally advanced stage. Altered fractionation such as accelerated radiotherapy (ART) in locally advanced carcinoma cervix has not been explored much. Here, we have reported the long-term outcome of ART in comparison to conventional CRT in locally advanced cervical cancer patients. Methods From September 2011 to January 2014, 191 patients with locally advanced squamous cell carcinoma of the uterine cervix, FIGO stage IIB - IIIB were included in this study. They were randomized into two arms: the CRT arm (95 patients) versus the ART arm (96 patients). During external beam radiotherapy (EBRT), the patients in the CRT arm received conventional radiotherapy 50 Gy/25 fractions, 2 Gy/fraction, 5 fractions/week with cisplatin 40 mg/m
