Correlation of degree of acute radiation dermatitis (RD) with skin dose distribution in head and neck squamous cell carcinoma patients treated with definitive concurrent chemoradiation.

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: Radiation dermatitis (RD) or skin toxicity is one of the most common acute side effects of radiation in head and neck cancer patients. This study aims to correlate the pattern of volumetric-modulated arc therapy (VMAT) dose distribution to the skin with the grades of RD. Materials and methods: 80 plans of histopathologically proven squamous cell carcinoma head and neck patients already treated with definitive concurrent chemoradiation [66-70 Gy in 33-35# or 66 Gy in 30# in simultaneous integrated boost (SIB), with concurrent Cisplatin 100 mg/m Results: The incidence of G2/G3 RD was 52.5%, and its incidence was significantly correlated with all of the four parameters. Statistically significant (p < 0.001) dosimetric predictive accuracy was provided by 71.66 cc, 29.98 cc and 7.624 cc of the 3mm skin ring V Conclusion: The dose distribution pattern to a skin layer stationed 3mm below the surface may help predict the development of severe RD in head and neck cancer patients receiving concurrent chemoradiation.
