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

Gadolinium-doped polymer gel dosimeters enable experimental evaluation of dose enhancement in low-energy radiotherapy, although the high Gd concentrations required substantially alter their magnetic relaxation properties, making the optimal Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) readout uncertain. This study characterized the dosimetric response of PAGAT and Gd-PAGAT (9 mg/mL Gd) irradiated with a 150 kVp X-ray beam from 1 to 10 Gy using quantitative 1.5 T MRI. Quantitative R
