Phenomenological insights into the FLASH radiotherapy-induced abscopal effect.
Article in Frontiers in oncology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Background: The abscopal effect suggests that the impact of radiotherapy extends beyond the direct tumor local regression, due to activation of the immune response. Its effectiveness may vary depending on whether high- or low-radiation doses are used. In FLASH therapy, the high-dose rate treatment induces systemic effects that may trigger an abscopal response. Methods: We discuss a phenomenological, computational model, based on available Results: The method enables a quantitative assessment of the interaction between FLASH radiotherapy and the activated immune response, based on observations of metastatic shrinkage due to the FLASH treatment of the primary tumor.
