A review on functional lung avoidance radiotherapy plan for lung cancer.
Review in Frontiers in oncology, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
Lung cancer is the most common malignant tumor in China. Its incidence and mortality rate increase year by year. In the synthesis treatment of lung cancer, radiotherapy (RT) plays a vital role, and radiation-induced lung injury(RILI) has become the major limiting factor in prescription dose escalation. Conventional RT is designed to minimize radiation exposure to healthy lungs without considering the inhomogeneity of lung function, which is significantly non-uniform in most patients. In accordance with the functional and structural heterogeneity of lung tissue, functional lung avoidance RT (FLART) can reduce radiation exposure to functional lung (FL), thus reducing RILI. Meanwhile, a dose-function histogram (DFH) was proposed to describe the dose parameters of the optimized image-guided RT plan. This paper reviews lung function imaging for lung cancer RT plans. It also reviews the clinical applications of function-guided RT plans and their current problems and research directions to provide better guidance for clinical selection.
