Clinical Profile of Pediatric Oncology Patients Treated by Radiotherapy: A Retrospective Audit from a Tertiary Cancer Care Center in South India.
Article in South Asian journal of cancer, 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
Introduction: With the increase in the number of pediatric cancers in India, there is a need for a multimodal approach involving various disciplines of therapy in which radiotherapy is one of the important areas of treatment. As there is a paucity of studies in South India about the profile of pediatric cancer patients who have undergone radiotherapy the present study was undertaken. Methods: A record-based retrospective study was conducted at the department of pediatric hematology-oncology and radiotherapy at a tertiary care hospital in South India using a data abstraction form which consisted of sociodemographic details of study participants, primary diagnosis, confirmed diagnosis, site of radiotherapy, current status of the patient, etc. Chi-square test or Fisher's exact test was used to find out significant association between current status of study participants and various determinants influencing it. Results: Highest proportion, Conclusion: Radiotherapy remains an important modality of cancer-directed therapy in children with cancer. Radiotherapy still forms an integral part of cancer-directed treatment in children with cancer as demonstrated in our population.
