Nasopharyngeal carcinoma in a south European population: epidemiological data and clinical aspects in Portugal.
Article in European archives of oto-rhino-laryngology : official journal of the European Federation of Oto-Rhino-Laryngological Societies (EUFOS) : affiliated with the German Society for Oto-Rhino-Laryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, 2010. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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 incidence of nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) varies worldwide, with higher rates in southern Asia, intermediate rates in Mediterranean basin countries as well as in Greenland and Alaska populations, and low rates in most of the western countries. The percentage of NPC types seems to vary according to the WHO classification. Portugal is also a Mediterranean basin country. The NPC patterns in Portuguese population is comparatively analyzed with a review of the related literature, concerning the overall incidence, male/female ratio, age of incidence, WHO type frequency, Epstein-Barr virus relationship and genetic susceptibility. The particular findings in the Portuguese population can be discussed in the light of genetic background and close relationships with potential exogenous oncogenic factors.
