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

In the context of oligometastatic renal cell carcinoma (RCC), local treatment with stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) may improve oncologic outcomes. However, the location and size can often pose a technical challenge in standard SBRT delivery, and the dose is potentially limited by nearby organs at risk (OARs). Online adaptive radiotherapy (oART) improves radiation delivery by personalizing high-dose fractions to account for daily stochastic variations in patient anatomy or setup. The oART process aims to maximize tumor control and enhances precision by tailoring to a more accurate representation of a patient in near-real time. The proceeding re-optimization can mitigate the uncertainty inherent in the traditional radiation delivery workflow and precludes the need for larger margins that account for anatomical variations and setup errors. Here, we describe a case of oligometastatic RCC with a bulky (>300 cm
