1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

As systemic therapies, alongside radiation, for cancer treatment continue to evolve, the radiation oncology community is facing an increasing number of reirradiation (re-RT) of tumor sites subject to recurrences. There are multiple factors associated with choosing re-RT as a treatment option for a previously irradiated site. The factors include the site of previous radiotherapy (RT), the current extent of the disease, the nature of recurrence, the technique used for previous irradiation, and the previous RT details including dose and dose fractionation. There is a persistent heterogeneity in the workflow and decision-making in cancer care centers worldwide. The current review is an attempt to dive into the practices of decision-making for re-RT, interdisciplinary attention given to the re-RT patients, and acceptable doses to the organ at risk (OAR) deduced from the understanding of previous RT and radiobiology of the tumor and sites evidence of better techniques for effective execution.
