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

Background: Radiation pneumonitis (RP) is not an uncommon complication in lung cancer patients undergoing radiation therapy (RT) and symptomatic RP can affect their quality of life. Purpose: To investigate the CT findings of RP in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients and their relationship with clinical outcomes. Materials and methods: We reviewed data from 240 NSCLC patients who underwent RT between 2014 and 2022. CT findings of RP were evaluated for parenchymal abnormalities and distribution, which were then classified into three patterns: localized pneumonia (LP), cryptogenic organizing pneumonia (COP), and acute interstitial pneumonia (AIP). Clinical outcomes of RP were evaluated based on Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) grade. Results: Of the 153 patients, 135 developed RP. The most common pattern was LP ( Conclusions: RP in NSCLC patients can be classified into LP, COP, and AIP patterns and they exhibit different severities in clinical outcomes.
