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

This narrative review examines the genomic-adjusted radiation dose (GARD), a biologically informed framework developed to personalize radiotherapy by integrating tumor-specific genomic data. GARD combines the radiosensitivity index (RSI), based on gene expression, with the linear quadratic model to estimate patient-specific radiation effect. Since its introduction in 2017, GARD has demonstrated prognostic value across multiple cancer types in retrospective studies. This review summarizes key studies evaluating GARD across various tumor types and clinical contexts. Emerging trials, including a Phase II trial in HPV-positive oropharyngeal cancer, aim to validate GARD-guided dosing in precision radiotherapy. Future efforts may focus on refining RSI, addressing tumor heterogeneity, and validating GARD-guided dosing in prospective settings.
