Impact of Vaginal Dilator Use and 68 Gy EQD2
Article in Journal of personalized medicine, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.
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
backgroundThis study evaluated the clinical outcomes of applying a 68 Gy EQD2 MATERIAL AND
methodsWe analyzed 131 patients treated with vaginal-cuff brachytherapy after external beam irradiation. Group-1 (65 patients) received one fraction of 7 Gy, and Group-2 (66 patients) received one fraction of between 5.5 and 7.0 Gy after applying a 68 Gy EQD2
resultsWith a median follow-up of 60 months, the vaginal-cuff relapse rate was 1/131 (0.8%). Late vaginal complications appeared in 36/65 (55.4%) Group-1 patients and 17/66 (25.8%) Group-2 patients (
