Radiotherapy treatment planning for esophageal cancer: JASTRO guidelines 2024 for radiotherapy treatment planning.
Review in Journal of radiation research, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers.
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
The Japanese Society for Radiation Oncology (JASTRO) Guidelines for Radiotherapy Treatment Planning have been revised every four years to incorporate the latest findings since the publication of the first edition in 2004. This is a review which presents the 2024 JASTRO Guidelines for radiotherapy treatment planning for esophageal cancer in English. Regarding the treatment of esophageal cancer, various new findings have emerged over the past 4 years, leading to significant updates in the 2020 edition, particularly in the following six areas: (i) additional details on indications for superficial cancer, (ii) inclusion of clinical trial results (JCOG1109) for neoadjuvant chemotherapy and chemoradiotherapy in locally advanced cases in Japan, (iii) updated references on prophylactic lymph node irradiation, (iv) updates on IMRT, (v) revisions in accordance with the 5th edition of the Esophageal Cancer Treatment Guidelines, and (vi) additions of FOLFOX to concurrent chemotherapy regimens.
