Multi-Institutional Comparison of Ablative 5-Fraction Magnetic Resonance-Guided Online Adaptive Versus 15/25-Fraction Computed Tomography-Guided Moderately Hypofractionated Offline Adapted Radiation Therapy for Locally Advanced Pancreatic Cancer.
Article in Cancers, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
backgroundRadiation dose escalation for locally advanced pancreatic cancer (LAPC) using stereotactic magnetic resonance (MR)-guided online adaptive radiation therapy (SMART) or computed tomography (CT)-guided moderately hypofractionated ablative radiation therapy (HART) can achieve favorable outcomes although have not previously been compared.
methodsWe performed a multi-center retrospective analysis of SMART (50 Gy/5 fractions) vs. HART (75 Gy/25 fractions or 67.5 Gy/15 fractions with concurrent capecitabine) for LAPC. Gray's test and Cox proportional regression analyses were performed to identify factors associated with local failure (LF) and overall survival (OS).
resultsA total of 211 patients (SMART,
conclusionsAblative SMART and HART both achieve favorable oncologic outcomes for LAPC with minimal toxicity. We did not observe an OS difference, although technical advantages of SMART might improve target coverage and reduce LF.
