Development of a model to guide the decision for radiotherapy in deep-inspiration breath-hold in patients with left-sided breast cancer.

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
Patients with left-sided breast cancer receiving radiotherapy are at risk of developing chronic cardiac toxicities. Cardiac dose-sparing techniques such as deep-inspiration breath-hold (DIBH) can reduce this risk. In this study, a model has been developed including tumor localization, left lung volume, and the distance between the heart and medial chest wall as well as age and Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status, which may help to guide the decision for or against DIBH after planning computed tomography (CT) in free breathing directly before initiation of radiotherapy planning.
