Late age (85 years or older) peak incidence of bladder cancer.
Article in The Journal of urology, 2008. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 23 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
purposeWe examined the incidence rates of bladder cancer using California Cancer Registry data to determine if any trends exist. MATERIALS AND
methodsComplete records of the 55,159 cases of invasive bladder cancer were examined from the original 92,677 bladder cancer cases recorded in the California Cancer Registry between 1988 and 2004.
resultsCalifornia Cancer Registry data showed a universal late age peak in age specific incidence of bladder cancer in men and women, and across ethnic boundaries. The rate of annual increase in the percent of bladder cancer in individuals 85 years or older was increasing about 10 times as rapidly as the percent of the population that was 85 years or older (slope = 0.395 vs 0.0336). Furthermore, during all 17 years the proportion of patients 85 or older with bladder cancer was about twice that of patients with other cancers regardless of gender.
conclusionsCalifornia Cancer Registry data illustrate a peak in the incidence of bladder cancer in individuals 85 years or older. However, to our knowledge there is no known explanation for this late peak in bladder cancer. With the rate of bladder cancer in the population 85 years or older increasing at a rapid pace, it is critical to encourage investigators to include this age group as they continue to search for causative factors and genetic contributors to bladder cancer as well as effective treatments.
