1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

purposeTo develop an accelerator neutron source suitable for boron neutron capture therapy-a new promising method for treating malignant tumors-and to develop dosimetry tools and methods.

methodsResearch into the transport and acceleration of a beam of charged particles, development and manufacture of an accelerator neutron source, study of the radiation generated, and development and implementation of dosimetry tools and methods.

resultsA facility called VITA has been created, which includes a tandem electrostatic accelerator of an original design for producing a 2.3 MeV 10 mA proton beam, a lithium target for generating neutrons in the

conclusionsThe authors strongly recommend using prompt γ-ray spectroscopy in treatment and developing lithium neutron capture therapy, including in combination with BNCT, and note the high efficiency, reliability and compactness of the VITA
