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

Cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) is an essential tool in radiotherapy, enhancing patient positioning accuracy and enabling precise treatment delivery by monitoring anatomical changes throughout the treatment process. This case report highlights the significant role of CBCT in managing a patient with lung adenocarcinoma treated with concurrent chemoradiation. The lung mass and lower paratracheal lymph nodes were irradiated with 60 Gy in 30 fractions. During the course of treatment, CBCT allowed us to observe substantial tumor shrinkage, prompting a treatment replanning to ensure optimal targeting of the tumor while minimizing radiation exposure to healthy tissues. This adaptive approach resulted in excellent treatment outcomes with no complications, demonstrating the efficacy of CBCT in modern radiotherapy.
