Fan beam computed tomography-guided online adaptive external radiotherapy for cervical cancer achieves pathological complete response: A case report.
Article in Oncology letters, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Radiotherapy (RT) is an established viable treatment for cervical cancer across all clinical stages. However, the therapeutic ratio of conventional techniques remains suboptimal due to the anatomical proximity of the cervix to critical pelvic organs. The current study presents a case of pathological complete response (pCR) achieved exclusively through preoperative online adaptive RT (oART) guided by fan beam computed tomography (FBCT). A 54-year-old woman presenting with irregular vaginal bleeding was diagnosed with a cervical mass via pelvic imaging. Subsequent histopathological biopsy confirmed invasive papillary squamous cell carcinoma. Preoperative evaluation, supplemented by laboratory and imaging studies, ruled out distant metastases. The patient underwent fractionated oART using a CT-linear accelerator platform. Post-treatment imaging demonstrated complete resolution of the lesion, and surgical histopathology revealed no residual malignancy. This case highlights the feasibility, safety and dosimetric precision of FBCT-guided oART in cervical cancer. The pCR achieved in this case indicates that oART has the potential to improve the treatment of cervical cancer.
