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

backgroundThe integration of MRI-guidance and proton therapy is a current research topic. Proton therapy with the patient being placed inside an in-beam MR scanner would require the presence of its static magnetic ( PURPOSE: In this work, the PTW Octavius 1500

methodsThe dose rate response, response homogeneity and effective measurement depth of the detector were determined in experiments with scanned proton beams delivered by a horizontal beamline at OncoRay, Dresden. A patient-specific QA test including gamma analysis was performed for a realistic proton patient treatment plan at two different distances from the beam nozzle. In addition, experiments were performed in a

resultsThe dose rate response was found to be linear up to

conclusionsConcluding from these tests, the Octavius 1500
