Volumetric Modulated Arc Therapy for lung cancer: Correlation between dose and volume.
Article in Journal of applied clinical medical physics, 2026. 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
backgroundIn lung cancer radiotherapy, the volume of the lung receiving a dose above 20 Gy (V
objectiveTo investigate the predictive effect of the ratio of the planning target volume (PTV) to lung volume (r) on lung V
methodsA total of 197 samples were used, including VMAT plans covering primary lung lesions and lymphatic drainage areas, of which 149 were used for training and 48 for testing. A retrospective analysis was conducted on the relationship between the r and MLD or V
resultsThe r ranged from 0.0112 to 0.2811. The R
conclusionThe r showed good fitting results with the power and logarithmic functions of MLD or V
